SailGP – Season 4 – Preview


SailGP is at the vanguard of yachting, combining technological innovation with supreme athleticism in the pursuit of excellence. Rolex has been the global presenting partner and Official Timepiece of the series since its launch in 2019. On Friday, 16 June, Season 4 of the global championship opens with the Rolex United States Grand Prix in Chicago, marking the first occasion the Swiss watchmaker has been Title Sponsor of a SailGP event. Ten national teams are set to contest 12 events on four continents across the 13-month-long Season 4. The Australia SailGP team, led by two-time Rolex World Sailor of the Year Tom Slingsby, will start as the crew to beat having won all three championships to date. Competition is fierce and spectacular with short, intense races decided by the finest of margins. Among the many talented sailors to feature in the series are the most successful male and female Olympic sailors of all time, Sir Ben Ainslie and Hannah Mills, both Rolex Testimonees and teammates on the Emirates Great Britain SailGP team. SailGP’s transformative impact extends to a number of important projects off the water. These include initiatives dedicated to the environment, women and young sailors.

Rolex has always associated with activities driven by passion, excellence, precision and team spirit. The Swiss watchmaker naturally gravitated towards the elite world of yachting six decades ago and the brand’s enduring partnership now encompasses the most prestigious clubs, races and regattas, as well as towering figures in the sport, including ground-breaking round-the-world yachtsman Sir Francis Chichester and the most successful Olympic sailor of all time, Sir Ben Ainslie. Today, Rolex is Title Sponsor of 15 major international events – from leading offshore races such as the annual Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race and the biennial Rolex Fastnet Race, to grand prix competition at the Rolex TP52 World Championship and spectacular gatherings at the Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup and the Rolex Swan Cup. It also supports the exciting SailGP global championship in which national teams race identical supercharged F50 catamarans on some of the world’s most famous harbours. Rolex’s partnerships with the Cruising Yacht Club of Australia, Royal Ocean Racing Club, Yacht Club Costa Smeralda, Yacht Club Italiano, New York Yacht Club and Royal Yacht Squadron, among others, are the foundation of its enduring relationship with this dynamic sport.
