This one's just for you PJ - cos I know how much you love the America's Cup!
Woohoo!
Emirates Team New Zealand have beaten BMW Oracle in the last race of the round robin 2 in the Louis Vuitton Cup challenger series. We're at the top of the table, which means we get to pick who we go up against in the semi finals.
It was a huge win - by almost 500m, and 1 minute 34 seconds. We took the lead early on, and extended it throughout the race. Awesome job, guys!I'll see if I can find a pretty pic to add to this in the morning. Found one!

Oh thanks for that WW! An update on my favourite sport! How nice!
BTW - isn't it true there are actually more New Zealanders on Oracle than whatever 'our' boat is called? Go Chris Dickson and KZ7!
har har. ;)
No actually there are more on the Team New Zealand boat - yesterday I think they said there were 15 Kiwis on our boat, and 11 on Oracle. Or something like that, anyway.
Go Kiwis on boats, I say!
