Geneva Sail Grand Prix 2026
About this Event
Round eleven moves inland to Lake Geneva, one of the few freshwater venues on the SailGP calendar rather than the saltwater harbors most stops use.
Freshwater is less dense than seawater, which affects how the F50s foil, a variable race engineers account for in setup that doesn't come into play at most other stops on the calendar.
It's a home race for the Switzerland SailGP Team, driven by Sébastien Schneiter, adding local stakes on top of the standings.
