37th America’s Cup
There are three Preliminary Regattas that precede the final races: the first two took place in 2023 on board the AC40s (Vilanova i la Geltrú, Spain, from September 14 to 17 – Jeddah, Saudi Arabia from November 29 to December 2), while the last took place in August 2024 in Barcelona with the AC75 monohulls.
The Challenger Selection Series began at the end of August 2024, while the Final Match will take place from October 12 to 27, 2024.
To win the right to challenge Emirates Team New Zealand in the Final Match, Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli, helmed by Skipper and Team Director Max Sirena, will first have to beat Ineos Britannia (Great Britain), NYYC American Magic (USA), Orient Express Racing Team (France ) and Alinghi Red Bull Racing (Switzerland). Flanking the Italian team for the third consecutive time will be Circolo della Vela Sicilia. On board the AC75 will be a crew of eight sailors (including 4 cyclors), capable of managing the "flying machines" that require extraordinary physical qualities, experience, and technological skills.
