“Todas las manos a la obra… pero finalmente ganó la Madre Naturaleza”, dijo el director ejecutivo y piloto del equipo SailGP de Estados Unidos, Jimmy Spithill, al hablar sobre el importante evento meteorológico que se produjo en la base técnica de SailGP después de la regata del sábado en el KPMG Australia Sail Grand Prix | Sídney.

Debido al daño resultante a la flota de SailGP F50, las carreras se cancelaron para el domingo. Afortunadamente, no se han reportado heridos graves.

Más temprano en el día sábado, el equipo US SailGP se mostró en forma, sobresaliendo en las condiciones de viento racheado. Un par de segundos lugares, y el quinto lugar en la tercera carrera, colocaron al equipo en el segundo lugar general detrás del equipo France SailGP y por delante de los australianos.

De acuerdo con las reglas de SailGP, las tres carreras completadas son suficientes para constituir un evento. El segundo lugar del equipo aseguró puntos valiosos, pero no fue suficiente para cerrar la brecha de 11 puntos que queda entre ellos y el podio de la clasificación de la temporada.

La liga ha indicado que después de una evaluación preliminar, planea avanzar con los próximos dos eventos en la Temporada 3, el Gran Premio de Vela de ITM Nueva Zelanda | Christ Church del 18 al 19 de marzo y la Gran Final: el Gran Premio de Vela de Estados Unidos | San Francisco 6 y 7 de mayo de 2023.

“It was all-hands on deck… but ultimately Mother Nature won,” said United States SailGP Team CEO and Driver Jimmy Spithill speaking about the major weather event that rolled through the SailGP Technical Base following Saturday’s racing at the KPMG Australia Sail Grand Prix | Sydney.

Due to the resulting damage to the SailGP F50 fleet, racing was canceled for Sunday. Thankfully, no serious injuries have been reported.

Earlier in the day Saturday, the U.S. SailGP Team looked on form, excelling in the gusty wind conditions. A pair of second places, and the third race fifth place, put the team in second place overall behind the France SailGP Team and in front of the Australians.

According to SailGP rules, the three completed races are enough to constitute an event. The team’s second-place finish secured valuable points, but it wasn’t enough to close the 11-point gap that remains between them and the season leaderboard podium.

The league has indicated that after a preliminary assessment, it plans to move forward with the next two events in Season 3, the ITM New Zealand Sail Grand Prix | Christ Church March 18-19 and the Grand Final – the United States Sail Grand Prix | San Francisco May 6 – 7, 2023.
