After 13 years of continued success, the world's leading grand prix monohull series, the 52 Super Series is in great shape ahead of the 2025 season which starts on France's Cote d'Azur on April 29th when the curtain rises on the 52 SUPER SERIES Saint Tropez Sailing Week.

Continued support from existing, long standing main sponsors as well as new technical partners ensures that the circuit is on a firm footing to plan for the coming years.
