Top sailing photographer Gilles Martin-Raget was shoreside in Saint-Tropez for the first day of racing at SailGP Saint-Tropez Day 1, the fifth regatta of Season 3.

See the Mark 1 roundings for each race in 30 kts of wind, and all the contentious action on the final leg of the course, NZL vs AUS on Race 1; the Canadians near capsize, and plenty of high speed action from Saint-Tropez.
