The Red Bull Youth America’s Cup starts in less than a week and the 10 national youth teams are into their final preparations on San Francisco Bay.

The event runs from September 1-4, with four days of fleet racing off the America’s Cup Village at Marina Green.

On Saturday, August 31, there is a final day of practice with Speed Trials incorporated in the final training session – a spectator favourite.

“If I had to sum up the situation, I would say that this is a fantastic race course, with great boats and that our rivals are going to be tough,” said Antoine Lauriot-Prévost, the helmsman for the French entry, Next World Energy. “But we have a wonderful team here and everyone is focused.”
