F50 Articles
The Emirates Great Britain driver’s story isn’t just about getting back in the game. It’s about chewing through setbacks, swallowing pride, and pushing past the quiet fear that maybe the F50 wheel would never be his again.
After losing the driver’s role in Season 1, Fletcher admits the blow was brutal. “It felt like that could be it – I might never drive an F50 again. I’ll never forget walking into the 49er Worlds a few months later… the boat was gone, I was no longer in SailGP, just standing on the sidelines wondering what I could do to get back.
