Default Alinghi wins 32nd America's Cup

The Swiss team of the boat Alinghi has won the 32nd America's Cup for 12 seconds in a heart attack final.

A few meters from the top mark and with an already comfortable advantage over its contestant, the Emirates Team NZ, the wind stopped for Alinghi and it couldn't move while the Emirates Team NZ continue advancing.

Right when it appeared that the Defendant Alinghi might be beaten by the Contestant Emirates New Zealand team, the Alinghi started to move again, crossing the top mark and winning again the America's Cup.

Good news for them, for Europe, for Valencia, possibly the competition will continue and more money will be given to this city.
