Emirates GBR: the winning interview
The season 5 SailGP championship triumph came down to a three-boat final that Freddie Carr describes as 'one of the best sailing races I've seen in a very, very long time.' And given Freddie's America's Cup pedigree, that's not a throwaway line.
Andy Rice and Freddie break down the key tactical moments from that winner-takes-all showdown, before hearing directly from driver Dylan Fletcher and strategist Hannah Mills on the boat handling gamble that changed everything, the boundary-pushing gybe that had everyone holding their breath, and why the pressure of a grand final compares to Olympic gold and America's Cup glory.
