SailGP season opener serves and frustrates in equal measure

SailGP season opener serves and frustrates in equal measure by Mark Jardine 26 Apr 11:07 BST 24-25 April 2021 Firstly, I take my hat off to the logistics team at SailGP that the event happened at all. With a Covid lockdown in Bermuda and the general difficulties in travel, getting eight international teams and the paraphernalia to a small island in the North Atlantic was no mean feat. If that wasn t complex enough, the production, commentary and umpiring team were in London. All the data had to be transmitted in near real-time to and fro between the two locations. This did of course result in delays during post-race Q&As with the skippers, but it worked. With a split commentary team there were the inevitable pauses and points of talking over each other, but as we all know with Zoom calls, these are pretty much unavoidable.

PlanetSail OnCourse Episode 11: Could the America's Cup come to Britain?

PlanetSail OnCourse Episode 11 © PlanetSail In the end, the successful defence of the America s Cup didn t come as a surprise. As the last few races played out it became increasingly clear that the home team had a much faster boat. What did come as a shock was the talk of what might happen next for the Cup. When the official statement was released by the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron (Defenders) and the Royal Yacht Squadron in Cowes (Challenger of Record) there were plenty of raised eyebrows.

AI AC36.5 v1.0

Virtual Eye view of Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli vs Emirates Team New Zealand © ACE / Virtual Eye The America s Cup is taking the next logical step in its evolution, with the move from the physical to the virtual world. For continuity, the AC75 rule will be retained, with a few modifications learned from the 36th America s Cup for what will be known as the AI AC36.5 v1.0 . Team New Zealand s Grant Dalton said, This was always going to be the way forwards. We ve heard so many ludicrous ideas as to where the next America s Cup was going to be hosted, with suggestions that we d be short-tacking up the Medina River in Cowes or racing down Bomb Alley to the north of Porto Cervo in Sardina, with some even suggesting we d use Auckland again - it s all crazy talk. We re going virtual and can race in the Sea of Tranquillity on the Moon for all I care.
