In the time it takes to watch this video, one team won $1million.

When the SailGP show rolled into town in San Francisco for the Season 3 Finale there was one key question being asked... Who was going to join the Australians and Kiwis in the million dollar final?

Barring any boat breaking dramas, throughout the season the two Southern Hemisphere teams had clocked up enough points to secure their positions in the Season 3 showdown already.

So, would it be, the British or the French? The pair were separated by just one point. Ben Ainslie, Tom Slingsby, Hannah Mills, Quentin Delapierre and Peter Burling give their analysis of the key moments from the weekend while Matt Sheahan provides an overall view of the final and crucial event in SailGP Season 3.
