| 562050 | 2007-06-26 12:09:00 | Was a bit of a worry hearing Chris Dickson on TV saying he also thought Alinghi is faster. :eek: I was certain Ninja's were going to attack after he said that, sadly it never happened. |

| 562051 | 2007-06-26 12:12:00 | Just heard on tv that the sea in valencia is very lumpy and the wind is very shifty this could mean either no racing or we may struggle in lumpy seas. I have my fingers crossed that TNZ will win. The temp has dropped to 18 degrees as well which would explain the lighter win conditions. |

| 562056 | 2007-06-26 22:13:00 | Almost gave it away Yeah that was a worry alright. Didn't watch the full race race cos sadly I fell asleep on the couch while watching :horrified :o But this morning's review showed that The Team managed to pull themselves out of their own pit. Excellent stuff. |

| 562057 | 2007-06-26 22:47:00 | It just goes to show that no matter how many mistakes TNZ made in last nights race they can still manage to come from behind and win.TNZ i would say would have well rehearsed and been well drilled for incidents that happened last night they are just so on top of their game. As for AL Dinghy well they make mistakes and give up easily despite the fact TNZ had a 350m lead Dinghy just looked behind them and saw TNZ miles ahead and all Ed Baird could do was shake his head not much of an attempt by the crew to solve that problem because they are relying on there boat speed to much.AS i said in a previous post great crew work will get you winning results and thats what TNZ has despite mistakes they just put head down and ass up and they are off like a rocket. |

| 562058 | 2007-06-26 22:58:00 | Dean Phipps on Al Dinghy was moaning his ass off on the radio this morning saying he thought the race was a lottery cause he believed the wind was too light, Ed baird could have radioed the race committee and said we dont want to race and that would have called it off. Also i believe the lead changed five times TNZ kicks ass. |

| 562059 | 2007-06-26 23:37:00 | Alinghi are the sorest losers!!! The fact they say the race should have been postponed reinforces that, as Hitech said, the lead changed FIVE TIMES during the race!!! I think it's indicating they are either letting everybody know that their boat is no good in light winds, or they know they got beaten and beaten good, by a very skillful bunch of guys. It seems to me that they can't handle the jandal, and they were expecting it to be easy. Well TNZ got news for ya! | wratterus (105) | ||
