Anyone else following this? Think there's any chance of Alinghi being defeated?

Am hoping for a Kiwi victory, but it will be tough.

At the moment Alinghi is looking to be very strong and word is they have developed an even faster hull. Best challengers will be either New Zealand or Oracle if i was to venture a guess i would say 5-3 to Alinghi vs New Zealand in the Americas Cup Final

I thought the races were best of 7?

Louis Vuitton Cup is best of 7 and Americas cup was and i think still is best of 9 as Alinghi beat Team New Zealand 5-0 in 2003
