On the latest episode of the Yacht Racing Podcast I sit down with USA SailGP team boss Mike Buckley...
...for a frank and open chat about his experience of leading a team in SailGP, including: the importance of resilience and thick skin; the team’s challenges on the water; the impact of bringing in new sailors; the fundamental difference between America’s Cup and SailGP teams; and his plans for the team’s medium and long-term future.
Magnus Wheatley and I review SailGP's Bermuda event, widely considered a much-needed reset for the series. With flat water, consistent breeze, and a larger racecourse, Bermuda delivered exciting racing — and produced a dominant performance from the Australian team.
