NorthStar SailGP Team 7th in New York

June 12, 2025

The NorthStar SailGP Team finished 7th overall at the 6th stage of the 2025 SailGP season in New York last weekend. The Canadian team is currently fifth in the 2025 overall standing.

Diego Botin’s Spain has recorded back-to-back event wins after spectacularly beating New Zealand and France in New York’s winner-takes-all shootout.

The Spanish won the start and hit 72 km/h to just hold off the Kiwis with a slim three second lead at each gate, before screaming across the line in front of packed shoreside crowds on Governors Island.

Next stage will be in Portsmouth, UK, July 19-20
