Oracle'sbillionaire bankroller has many questions to answer in the weeks
ahead after his team, under the never-say-die skipper Jimmy Spithill,
staged the greatest comeback in 162 years of the competition.
Trailing
8-1 a week ago, Oracle sailed away from Emirates Team New Zealand by
44 seconds on Wednesday to retain the Auld Mug, the oldest trophy in international sports, in a winner-take-all finale on San FranciscoBay.
The
American-backed team won eight consecutive races to win 9-8 in the
first-to-nine series.
But
in the oddity that is America's Cup, Oracle, the defender, gets to
more or less call the shots for the next edition in three years.
What
venue? What class of boat?
Will
organizers stay with a multihull configuration or return to monohulls
of the past? If they go with multihulls, will they stick with soaring
7-ton yachts fastened with 131-foot carbon fiber sails or something
less imposing?
