Too much hype and ra ra. It's not Rugby, commentators need to chill out - a Lot. As does the editor, millions of little chopped up action shots, sprinkled over a ton of filler, does Not make for cohesive or even comprehensible viewing.
Seems rather stupid to pin nation flags on the boats yet allow non natives to crew.. I mean was 🇬🇧 GB generally crap or were her foreign press ganged mercenaries to blame? I want nation accountability please..
@@thepb7913 - If it’s a GB ship then I want limeys, a taff and a moaning jock if we have to. If it’s a U.K. boat then of course we can make room for a Paddy but that’s it.. Want no other national to be included under the Union Jack 🇬🇧 even if that means we lose every race. New rules please.
@@PlanetSailOnline Thanks! I thought that passing the line early incurred only in a penalty, while this was because of the collision risk they provoked
nobody -some years back -could imagine this speeds in sailing now the do not give us the enjoyment to follow the race -you sure need to rethink the whole presentation ,because you present it like a cricket mach or football no new angle of presentation for FOILING-SAILING ,your management bloody sucks 2
It looked gripping sailing, but rubbish editing made it really hard to follow. It's the 12yr old with ADHD video editor problem.....of thinking people will be bored (as he - and it is always he - would be) unless the view flicks constantly from one scene to another. This makes it impossible to follow the tactical manoeuvering or take in the detail. I'd rather have watched one full pre-start & race than this presentation of hundreds of salami slices - even though they were in chronological order.
And the full version of each day is available on SailGPs you tube channel. This version was created specifically for TV and has to fit within certain technical and time requirements ie 26mins which is std for TV broadcasts
regardless how often I see that start be ESP - that was not worthy of a black flag. DEN was never, ever going to get a piece of them. Jimmy and the US boys looked as if they had to avoid but actually, if they had gone for the acceleration when it was best they wouldn't have been close either. The US were doing there utmost to make it look as if ESP was infringing them - a typical Spithill move and one reason why so many sailors love to see him loosing. That call was down to SAILGP politics and the fact that Phil R. is only an interim helmsmen - wouldn't be good for marketing if the leading helmsmen leaves the series...
Trying to play "catch-up" with my viewing. I definitely favor GP racing over Cup competition but the presentation leaves a lot to be desired. The background sounds like a collection of jilted schoolgirls. Come on people, you are supposed go be professionals.
Thanks to the commentators I’m now SO excited! Before that it was just a sail boat race. Good job Sail GP. You’re the best!
22:22 USA half a boat length over the line at the start?????????? Watch the clock and hit pause when it goes to zero.
Awesome edit, thank you for making this and let haters hate, SailGP is the future of sailing

Some really great moves here. Please visit Newport , RI
change commentators...screaming nt necessary, this is not kindergarten or F1 racing
Yeah, I hate that style of commentating too
Was expecting to see some of your own work not another sail GP puff piece
Can you imagine an impact of 60 mph or even what the closing speeds would be between two ships and unbelted unsecured crews?
Sail GP best sailing racing event ever !
I don't like when they named skipper/helmsman as 'driver', and present speed in km/h instead of knots, but it's still awsome spectacle.
Why do all of the crews speak English and have English skippers?
Going by the accents, it sounds like half the skippers are Aussie.

No Aussies, no Kiwis, no boat race.

@@PaulAnthonyDuttonUk And they could have said Sir Ben was away at the OLYMPICS,,,zzzzzz
@@captainsirjackchucklebutty6147 I know they mentioned his absence on one of the most recent videos that was uploaded.
They should be like F1 motorsports. Just have the sponsors emblems on their boats.
They are boats, not cars. Use knots, not kph.
What does it mean “Black Flag”?
If you’re over the start line within 1 min of the start you are disqualified
@@PlanetSailOnline Thanks!

Whyy kmh......
Why not…..
@@diegoromeroarg why not centimetres/millisecond while you’re at it?
28 comments, says it all. Hardly anyone cares about this
Yea! Didn’t see any filth in the crowd!
GP , what is that ?

Complete bulls it if you are actually interested in the sailing

I will start a go fund me for y’all ,,,, for some efin chapstick
Phil Robertson was clear ahead. Piss poor call from the umpire. Denmark were slow and had to bear away to get below the top mark, not to avoid him.
Fair cop for a penalty for not avoiding the Americans though, I might add.
Ausies are dominating because they drive every boat :D I like the racing and action but having the nations’ flags on these boats seems kinda silly 🙃
If their funded buly that nation or its nationals it makes complete sense.
Terrible editing a new scene every second.The Editor wants shooting.
And not a single mask in sight!
Apart from all the skippers/crews when they were interview ashore during the event……
@@PlanetSailOnline pointless masking up then, pollution doesn’t discriminate.

These silly masks
totally unwatchable ... only suitable for people with ADHD....
Hey, I resemble that comment.
That was the whitest crowd I’ve ever seen :)
And the problem is...?
