In the final race of the day Alinghi beat Victory Challenge, after the Swiss led at every mark.
But the Swedes Victory Challenge pushed Alinghi hard, coming back at the Swiss on the last, downwind, leg.
Victory Challenge had closed to within a few boat lengths and were looking dangerous in the run to the finish line when their gennaker tore in half.
Winning margin: 00:25
