America's Cup video

Get behind the scenes in San Francisco

A six-episode feature, produced in conjunction with Red Bull Media House and the America’s Cup, offers a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the teams competing in the 2013 America´s Cup during the Summer of Racing in San Francisco.

The videos are available for viewing the America's Cup website.

The short documentary-style productions go inside the teams, boat designs, training regimens, rules, the speed of the sport, strategy and teamwork, among other elements.

The first episode, titled Racing to Win, sets the scene by showcasing the stunning power of the new AC72s and the day-to-day life of the athletes as the America’s Cup teams prepare for the culmination of the summer’s racing in September.

Oracle Team USA is preparing to defend its title, but challengers from New Zealand, Italy and Sweden are all gunning for the trophy, too.

Gain perspective from team members as they break down what it will take to raise the America’s Cup, the oldest active trophy in international sport.
