Does anyone know... I've just been looking to see if we're going to be able to watch this on TV over here and it doesnt look like it, only on YouTube. A bit disappointing if thats the case.

I did see that but at the top the heading is 33rd Americas cup, this is the 34th so I assumed it was an old webpage left over from before.
I wont cancel sky just yet then :) ------------- -- Dinghy Chandlery - Axminster -- http://www.coastwatersports.com/" rel="nofollow - http://www.coastwatersports.com/ |

There's nothing there that shows there will be AC coverage on Sky. Just some ancient stuff on ACWS in SF from last year. This is in fact a good thing since there's normally live YouTube coverage that gets blocked in countries where a broadcaster has bought the rights. |
