The second installment of Season 4 for SailGP will be at a new venue as the 10 F50 teams adapt to a small course within the Port of Los Angeles on July 22-23, navigating the thermal afternoon breezes across six fleet races and a three-boat Final.
Peter Burling’s New Zealand will be looking to defend the top spot of the leaderboard from rivals Australia while Canada will aim to continue its promising season start. As for the USA team, skipper Jimmy Spithill seeks to improve on finishing second to last in Chicago.
While the venue is known as ‘Hurricane Gulch’ for its strong winds, the PredictWind forecast is presently calling for milder westerly conditions of 9-14 knots on day one and 6-8 knots on day two. More so, the wind will be coming from the hills of Palos Verdes which could offer significant lulls and puffs.
The Oracle Los Angeles Sail Grand Prix will take place between 4:00pm-5:30pm PDT.
