Interview: Tom Slingsby ahead of Emirates Great Britain SailGP in Portsmouth

SailGP is back in action this weekend in Portsmouth, England where the country’s south coast continues to enjoy ‘endless summer’ weather. 

If there can be such a thing as a favourite in SailGP then Diego Botin’s Spanish Los Gallos are just that, after pulling off back-to-back victories at the two previous events in San Francisco and New York, to top the season standings on the eve of the British event.

Hot on the heels of the Spaniards, however, is Tom Slingsby’s Australian Bonds Flying Roos, who will be looking to scupper the Spanish winning spree in Portsmouth this weekend.

So how closely has the Australian team been studying the Spanish data from the last two events – and what might they have identified that Botin and Co. are doing differently?
