The F50 is the cutting-edge one-design catamaran which makes SailGP's action heart-racing and adrenaline-fuelled.

And with assistance from Iain 'Goobs' Jensen of the Great Britain SailGP Team, we can now take you on a tour of the F50 and teach you how it works.

Taking an in-depth look at all the tech onboard, and breaking down the functions of each crew role, this is the definitive guide to the F50 - the first boat to reach 92.6 km/h during racing!

San Francisco: counting down to the grand final

The upcoming Grand Final will be SailGP's second visit to San Francisco, following our Bay Area event in the inaugural 2019 campaign.

It's been well over two years since our F50s last raced on San Francisco Bay, and the countdown is well and truly on for the upcoming United StatesSGP.

And now is the time to get yourself hyped for the 26-27 March showdown by reliving the best moments from our previous trip to the Golden City!
