SailGP – HALIFAX HAD IT ALL. PASSIONATE CROWDS, FAST AND FURIOUS RACING, CLOSE CALLS, NEAR MISSES AND EVEN A DRAMATIC CAPSIZE FOR AUSTRALIA
But it was Emirates GBR which weathered the storm, rising to the top of fleet racing to go head to head against France and ROCKWOOL DEN in the three-boat showdown.
The team battled through some of the most challenging conditions in SailGP history, navigating high winds and driving rain to cross the finish line and seal Giles Scott’s first ever win as driver.

As SailGP prepares to return to New York, the stakes are higher than ever – with triple SailGP champions Australia slipping down to third place on the Season 4 leaderboard behind Spain. Peter Burling’s New Zealand meanwhile remains firmly in control in first place.
We round up some of the best moments from Halifax, including racing highlights, driver reactions and a reignited rivalry between Australia’s Tom Slingsby and Switzerland’s Nathan Outteridge.
