Alinghi defends the America's Cup
by Volker Weber
Emirates Team New Zealand was a strong opponent, but Alinghi managed to win 4 races in a row. Congratulations.

sorry,
....do not look to the sponsors!
look to the team on alinghi!
so much new zealander, so less switzerlands.
who has won?-)
Yes, Alinghi did well. My congratulations to them ... even if this wasn't the result I wanted!

As I already said in the previous thread on the America's Cup, I feel bad for the Kiwis because this series really deserved two winners, they were a worthy competitor. I look forward to the future races.
Jens, an international team with a high level of professionalism, quite a bit of luck, and a Swiss donor won. If you look around the sailing world, you'll see that every team is a blend of people from all sorts of countries because they understand it's a man's skills that count and not where he comes from. And there's no such thing as Switzerlands.
Congrats to alinghi...a gut wrencher race...and hey, I told you a Kiwi skipper would win! ;)
Lots of speculation right now that the alinghi-Kiwis are jumping aboard larrys boat for the next one...now that will be interesting!!!
Philipp: 100% ack. Guess that' s what globalization is all about. Congrats to Alinghi! Congrats to Switzerland, too!
Uh, btw, Philipp... In the Alinghi team, was there any real Swiss guy at all??
Cem, only one. The "Kielschwein"... :-)
