Not many Americans aboard Oracle with Colbert as a passenger.

In fact it was designed, built in NZ, the skipper and most of the crew come from Australasia.

Score is now 6-1. Winner is first to 7. If things go as they have until now the America's cup is going to New Zealand...

I can't believe that the Americans will not introduce some way of retaining it.

Damage or even sink Emirates?

134 years. For decades it was only raced in a desultory way and was lost when Australia and subsequently, New Zealand decided to challenge.
Besides no other nation is quite so adept at cheating as America.

Please don't get angry at my anti-American language; a lot of Americans should have treatment for their irony bypass condition.
