After Emirates Team New Zealand had a better start on this warm and sunny day with a 10 knot sea breeze, Alinghi caught up soon and took over the lead and also control of the race at the America´s Cup race in Valencia, Spain.

But during the second lap of the race, the New Zealand sailing team passed the Alinghi team and finally won with an advantage of 28 seconds. The series is now squared after two races before it continues on Tuesday.
