This weekends Rolex Los Angeles Sail Grand Prix is Situated on the Port of Los Angeles . . . the organisers, the teams and the spectators will be hoping that the ‘It’s not normally like this’ forecasts are wrong.
The Achillis heel of the F50 SailGP circuit – heavily promoted as a high-speed foiling spectacle – is a lack of wind scenario with racing reduced to a displacement stop-start fiasco.
The Los Angeles racecourse is one of the tightest on the calendar, so if the wind does put in an appearance the 12 national teams will have the chance to perform to their ‘cut and thrust’ best.
