What is the Rolex SailGP Championship?

SailGP is a global racing championship where world-class athletes, cutting-edge technology, and precision engineering converge in some of the world’s most iconic cities.

Featuring identical high-performance F50 catamarans capable of exceeding 100 km/h, SailGP delivers the fastest, most intense racing on water. 

With national teams competing head-to-head in close, one-design competition, every race is a battle for glory, with the prestigious championship trophy – and a $2 million winner-takes-all prize – on the line.

Representing Denmark, the ROCKWOOL Racing SailGP Team has established itself as the Fastest Team on Water, setting the all-time sail racing speed record in 2025 with a remarkable top speed of 103.93 km/h.
