>> i think for me personally when we were down 6-1, we didn't have any boat speed and it felt like we never had a chance. but in the two races we lost after that to go 8-1 down, we actually showed some real glimpses of speed. even though we lost those, two it was very close. as soon as we put a roll on, won a few in a row, the momentum kept building. and they just couldn't stop us. >> joe spithill what does it take to win the america's cup especially coming from so far beyond? >> it's a hard slog over three years for us in this campaign. and then to get at the end at the death to get so far be...
