SailGP Perth Australia | Rookie team of the year and the Season 6 Calendar

Описание: ⛵ SailGP Season 5 Review: GBR Wins It All, USA Struggles, & 2026 Calendar Reveal!
The dust has settled on a historic SailGP Season 5, and what a finale it was! In this episode of Up and Foiling - The Sailing Podcast, we dive deep into the triumphs and heartbreaks of the $2 million winner-takes-all Grand Final in Abu Dhabi.

🏆 Inside This Episode:

Rookie of the Year Debate: With new talent hitting the water, we discuss the standout newcomers. We look at Martine Grael’s debut season with Mubadala Brazil and whether she or another rising star deserves the "Rookie of the Year" crown.

The USA Slump: It was a season to forget for the United States SailGP Team. Finishing 12th overall with a league-high 18 penalty points—what went wrong for Taylor Canfield’s squad, and how do they rebuild for 2026?

The Danish Standout: While they missed the 3-boat final, ROCKWOOL Denmark was arguably the most improved team. We celebrate Nicolai Sehested’s crew for their massive Abu Dhabi event win and their rise to becoming a consistent podium threat.

2026 Season 6 Calendar: We take a first look at the official 2026 schedule! From the season opener in Perth to the highly-anticipated debut in Rio de Janeiro, we break down the logistics and the venues that will define next year’s racing.
