The Mubadala New York Sail Grand Prix, a typically high-spirit event, was veiled in an aura of uncertainty and disarray on its opening day. The villains? Swirling, insolent winds which fiendishly caused significant deployment issues for the F50 fleet. Only a daring quadruplet of boats braved the unruly conditions and successfully launched onto the water.
Fate, however, had an even crueler trick up her sleeve. The Bonds Flying Roos, an Australian entrant, nosedived disastrously after launch, resulting in substantial damage and consequently removing them from the remaining race events. The unfortunate mishap instantly reduced the number of contenders to a minuscule trio.
