- From the Newport AC45 World Series through all the second season of racing, all Oracle Racing boats (including those loaned to Ben Ainslie and HS Racing) were found to have raced out of measurement, with a 3 kg ballast surplus in the dolphin striker. All points are therefore subject to change and a new winner for both seasons to be declared.{{cite web|url=http://noticeboard.americascup.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/JN096.pdf |date=2013-08-08 |title=breach of AC45 Class Rule |url-status=bot: unknown |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130902234520/http://noticeboard.americascup.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/JN096.pdf |archivedate=2013-09-02 }}
