Rolex SailGP Championship[1] is an international sailing competition that features high-performance F50 foiling catamarans, where teams compete across a season of multiple grands prix (GP) around the world.

Technical information is also shared between teams, which includes large amounts of data collected using Oracle hardware and software systems.

[13] After the 2021 Bermuda Sail Grand Prix, additional penalty rules were put in place to discourage collisions on the race course.

Boats that collide during an event accumulate contact and damage points, which result in deductions from the season championship.

They are responsible for monitoring changing wind conditions, assisting in maneuvers, and keeping a close watch on the fleet.

[16] The inaugural competition was in 2019 with six teams competing from Australia, China, France, Great Britain, Japan, and the United States of America.

The competition consisted of a circuit of five race meets in Sydney,[17] San Francisco,[18] New York,[19] Cowes,[20] and Marseille.

[27] The British team changed as well, signing four-time Olympic Gold medalist and America's Cup skipper Ben Ainslie.

[34] The season commenced in April 2021 with the Bermuda Sail Grand Prix, which was won by Ben Ainslie's Great Britain SailGP team.

[36] Ultimately the season was won by the Australia SailGP team in the final race in San Francisco Bay.

[37] The third season of SailGP again introduced two new teams to the sport, with Canada and Switzerland joining, and three new venues, with the additions of Dubai, Singapore, and New Zealand.

The league tracks teams' progress in areas such as carbon footprint reduction, gender equity, and youth engagement.

Winning teams receive prize money to donate to their chosen charities, further amplifying their positive impact.
