What a start to the season from Australia! Who impressed you the most in Bermuda? 🤔
CAN. To come to their first event and make it to the final race is very impressive. AUS was very impressive as well - seems like they haven't lost a beat since the S2 final. Where was JPN? Are they coming to Chicago?
Australia definitely were impressive to pull off another win, and it’s great to see NZ and France up in front, but Canada were definitely the standout team as newcomers making the final. It looks like everyone is much stronger than they were a year ago and this season will be very competitive!
Definitely Canada! Super impressed with Australia considering Day 1 wasn't their best outing, so to get the win in Race 5 to secure their place in the final was a Masterclass, then to just dominate in the Final, was just unbelievable! Tom and his crew brought their A game at the right time in Day 2 that's for sure!
@@zoepaulastrassfield2664 Nearly every boat was within a few seconds of the line at the start. EVERYONE has upped their timing and distance game. Very competitive.
@@kkeelty64 I understand it'll be a couple more races before Japan can get their boat back from Canada once theirs is finishing build.
Spanish team rules: - always start super fast - always lose a good amount of positions in the first leg - always choose the opposite side of everybody else 😂❤
Absolutely love this format of sailing really showcases some of the best sailors in the world
You mean Ainslie v Australia?
70 k.p.h.? That's an insane speed on a sail craft, almost twice as fast as a Hobie 16 which is already pretty fast when you're on one at full speed. I'd like to see one of these boats out of the water, or should I say more out of the water? They look interesting and are obviously a lot bigger than they look here which is probably why they look slower than they actually travel.
After reading some of the comments, I would like to add. Some months ago the top speed for a foiling boat was achieved in the Med at 105 kmph. Incredible to watch. But you wouldn't want to fall off at that speed ! Image, cross the Atlantic in two days with no fuel !
if its toally flat, there is full wind, no storms
That IS racing! Good show!
super annoying coverage. These races are so short but you keep showing cuts that never show any of the lead changes....like in race 3 how/when the brits get above the french???? Please show more of each race. Horribly edited
So watch the full coverage. Both days are fully covered, about an hour and a half each.
Such a shame Italy is not competing. I hope they can join this competition soon.
There were rumors about it last year and I think most people thought they would be Team #9- Canada was the surprise.
speriamo. a parte spithill non riesco proprio a tifare per nessuno
The potential is there, but what a shame, Denmark screw up just one time too many ..!
As an ethnic Dane living just outside of San Francisco where Oracle is located, I’m glad I finally have a REAL reason to watch these races. Sure I am a sailor, and like the competition, but now I have ethnic interests involved! I don’t care if they win, I just want to see the progress. My team 🥰
This was fascinating I’ve never seen anything like this before I’m gonna rock the hell out of my hobie wave
damn hydrofoil is fascinating it can go morethan 80 miles
be nice if it was the full race not clips . . . just sayin
Can you still call them sailboats if instead of mainsails they have wings and if they touch the water is the race over?
What happened to Ben Ainslie at the start of the final??
Having a cuppa
Siri Ben Complainslie never gives credit to Slingsby who has beaten him comprehensively for the last year and a half, even though Slingsby always gives respect to him.
Stiff upper lip old chap!
As it should be. Some student and master gear mate
There seems to be airtime bias to Ainslie and the Brits too. Au gets f all airtime until the last two races.
@@AlienSexGod Aus has more skippers in sailGP than any other country!
the heck 35 knots . . . my sailboat only does 7 ;__;
Real
There's far more to yacht racing than bloody mark roundings!
These are the highlights. You tube has both days full covered. Each video is about an hour and a half. If you have that time to spare watch those.
@@dixondavies Thank you for your thoughtful reply. I think however that any "highlights" package should cover the critical moments in a race - wind shifts, big gains or losses, good or poor strategic decisions, etc - which do not necessarily occur at the marks (though of course, the tactics at mark roundings can be critical too)
@@BlueSoulTiger I watched both videos. But then I'm retired. The most interesting parts were when a team chose the opposite side, a gamble which sometimes paid off but mostly didn't. I did skip a lot of the before and after talk. But saw all of the actual races. I still sail and occasionally race. I'm in my eighties.
@@dixondavies Well done you! Sailboat racing is a great sport. For a fair appreciation, watching the entire race is the way to go - a luxury I cannot afford. Opposite sides suggests lighter winds or oscillating shifts, and the hunt for clear air. The punditry is often not insightful unfort. Lovely to meet you.
@@dixondavies thank you so much i was curious if anyone knew of a full version
Whats "P"?
He can still do college/university classes from prison. He can get counseling. He can do bodybuilding.
I'm looking for this type of walkie talkie ,, where can I get ? Anyone can help ?
geez.. how is that sailing when they're barely on the water.. haha
They’re still using a sail. But yea it’s insane
❤️👍
そうなんだ やはりセールGPも綺麗なことばかり言っても金なんだ金そうなんだな日本のファンとしては思う
What's up with the kiwis?
G.J.M. Oi...
At 9:05 minutes, was that a censor screech? Tone it Down. We all have headphones on! Way too loud. Don't censor! Silence Your words, if You want to censor American speech....Sailor Talk! Donna Chassis Honeyflow
need to check the definition of sailing, these guys are hydro-foiling.
hydrofoils don't produce thrust. They are under sail power, hence they are sailing.
Kite surfing... 😂
Right, everyone involved in the event is wrong.
Go Spain go!
So with the Aussie world champs still kicking spray everywhere it's pretty disappointing to see there is no Sail GP in Sydney anymore..... why is that CONvid quarantine rubbish?
