The 9th America's cup team is due to be anounced in Europe on Thursday and there is a Grand Prix being held in the cups former home Valencia. Red Bull who won both championships last year have just pulled sponsorship of one of their American Race teams. The motorsport press think it's to sponsor the new US Grand Prix, but I wonder if they could be sponsoring or running a cup entry.

Red Bull did sponsor the Victory Challenge in 2007.

Pure speculation of course
