America's Cup...

[Araxen]

Surprisingly FSN or Vs doesn't pick it up. FSN shows Airplane races which is about as niche as The America's Cup.

America's Cup TV - 33rd America's Cup

And from America's Cup website...

"With less than two weeks until the first races of the 33rd America’s Cup, a massive TV broadcast reach has already been secured which should ensure that the dramatic, never seen before multihull races between the Defender Alinghi and the Challenger BMW Oracle Racing have the capacity to reach a huge global audience.
Through the agreements with the European Broadcasting Union, which reaches 56 territories and has an audience of over 650 million and,globally, with Sports News TV spanning 160 territories, broadcasting to over 1.4 billion people and also with Transworld Sport with a global audience of over 302 million, the America’s Cup News packages are assured of a massive international audience of over 2 billion viewers

Among the broadcasters are Great Britain’s BSkyB, TVE/Teledeporte and Canal 9 in Spain, French based Eurosport and Showtime in the Middle East. Broadcasters will take all of the America’s Cup output, including the 26 minutes race day Highlights package, Race News package as well as the 52 minutes summary wrap up programme at the end of the event."

Translation: EVERYBODY BUT US

But...not like it would matter, we don't get Versus anyways. Its really a shame, since the event has spent so much time in America...plus they're racing new boats this time, which I would have loved to have seen in HD. I'm honestly surprised that with Ted Turner's background in the America's Cup, he hasn't made a pitch for one of his networks to carry some coverage.

Holy Cow!
They are racing and the American challenger BMW Oracle Racing's 90-by-90-foot trimaran is ahead almost 3000 meters. Looks like the USA-17 boat is much faster then SUI Alinghi 5.

The web site works very well and you have to download the free RAYV Player.

Thanks for the info.

America's Cup TV - 33rd America's Cup

I think it's already been mentioned by someone else beside me, but the link above has great COMPUTER coverage of the race. While I'm only on my first viewing, the link appears to run similar to hula.com and other sites where when you open the link, the coverage starts at the first of the race so you don't miss anything. I'M LOVING IT!
