On day two of the Louis Vuitton Trophy regatta, Great Britain's Team Origin has bounced back from its opening day loss to beat All4One on Auckland's Waitemata Harbour.

Ben Ainslie's crew took control from the gun and led by 26 seconds at the first mark.

Team Origin then continued to extend its lead to eventually beat the Franco-German syndicate by one minute and 33 seconds.

Team New Zealand is currently in action against Italy's Mascalzone Latino.
