The America's Cup represents the pinnacle of sailing, showcasing the most advanced technologies in the sport's history. Over time, boats have evolved from clippers to sophisticated carbon fiber flying machines. The AC75 is designed to go faster than the wind itself—by a lot. These boats can reach speeds up to five times the wind speed.
Engineering such a boat requires more than just art and knowledge of physics; it's a relentless pursuit of perfection in every aspect. The technology behind this event is always astounding, often introducing innovations that go beyond the race itself.
After the first day of racing, the competition is wide open, with all teams showing their strengths. So, do you have a favorite team? Who do you see making it to the finals? That's the question for you today.
