BMW Oracle have signed three-times America's Cup winner Russell Coutts to lead their next challenge. Coutts skippered New Zealand's successful challenge for sailing's most prestigious prize in 1995 and defended it in 2000 before signing up to lead new Swiss syndicate Alinghi for the 2003 America's Cup, taking five of his long-time team-mates with him. Coutts takes over from fellow New Zealander Chris Dickson.
