  • What makes or breaks a team? And what does it take to compete in the America's Cup, at elite level? See what it's like to compete at the mercy of the elements in this behind-the-scenes glimpse.
    The America's Cup is the pinnacle of the sport. When you're at this level, you wake up every morning living and breathing the regatta.
    But what makes or breaks a professional? The team members talk us through how dedication and discipline make every day count - and how they unlock a hitherto unknown level of performance.

    Seems like I have worked with inspired and inspiring people like this and there's one element that is sometimes missing IMO. And that is the humility to accept that you don't know something or that you are wrong about something. Often these things are hard to come by for the most ambitious.

    A view from the UK. Anyone who thinks this is conventional sailing, think again. This is well into the 'Aerodynamics' arena. We are, in effect, flying combining both air and water lift. Call it what you will but sailing, to aficionados, DOES NOT involve aerofoils, sorry.

    It is not the pinnacle of our sport, which is sailing. There is no sail-handling in these boats.

      It’s the pinnacle of design, engineering, technology and salesmanship all in one. Americas cup is unique.

      no reason to get overly pedantic ... enjoy it for what it is and that's exciting racing on water harnessing the power of wind
