BONDS Flying Roos clinch dramatic three-peat at New York Sail Grand Prix

Australia's BONDS Flying Roos clinched a third straight SailGP win by beating Emirates GBR in a dramatic final on the Hudson, despite a day of patchy breeze and shifting conditions. Slingsby credited the shore team as the Australians clawed back and the umpires ruled in their favour at the last mark, extending their lead to 11 points in the standings. NorthStar finished third after a tight battle with GBR, while the event was marked by chaos on day one, including a U.S. SailGP Team collision and damage to Red Bull Italy's F50. The teams head to the Canada Sail Grand Prix in Halifax in three weeks.

New York Sail Grand Prix Day 1: Wind Disrupts Fleet, No Points Awarded

SailGP’s Mubadala New York Grand Prix Day 1 was badly disrupted by shifting winds and crane-out limitations, forcing a reduced four-boat fleet that later dwindled to three after Bonds Flying Roos withdrew following a nose-dive. The three races held did not count toward the event or the 2026 season standings, with officials canceling Day 1 points and confirming that racing will resume with a full fleet on Day 2 (12 teams expected).
