BMW Oracle Racing Victory Brings America's Cup To San Francisco


The victory of the BMW Oracle Racing team in a 2-0 sweep brings the America's Cup to San Francisco Friday afternoon. The cup gets its own first class seat flying in from Valenica, Spain, via Frankfurt, Germany.

Its new home will be at the San Francisco Yacht Club. A public viewing is scheduled for Saturday morning with an address by San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom and team owner, Larry Ellison, CEO of Oracle.

I'll be at the press conference and will post more details over the weekend.
