Alinghi wants next America's Cup in 2010
AFP - October 23, 2008, 7:37 am

MADRID (AFP) - America's Cup champion Alinghi said Wednesday it hopes to organise the next edition in 2010 in the Spanish port of Valencia with a new and faster class of yachts.

blah blah blah

Alinghi "is re-opening entries for a multi-challenger 33rd America's Cup from now until 15 December 2008 with the intention of having a match in 2010 in a new and modern class of race yacht" in Valencia.

blah blah blah

But I thought, they couldn't have the AC in 2010 because of the Soccer World Cup???
What is going on???
