SailGP moves its Spanish stop to Valencia, the host of the 2007 and 2010 America's Cup. The purpose-built racing infrastructure and Mediterranean setting make it one of the most pedigreed sailing venues in Europe.
Valencia is the home event for the Los Gallos Spain SailGP Team led by Olympic gold medalist Diego Botín. Spain's passionate sports culture and the city's deep America's Cup legacy guarantee a charged, knowledgeable crowd.
Valencia offers classic Mediterranean thermal sailing—a reliable afternoon sea breeze building over flat, protected water. These are confidence conditions for the F50, rewarding precise boat handling over survival sailing.
