  1. Who's in the GB Boat?

    BBC Sport

    There are eight people onboard Britannia, four on each side of the boat.

    • HELMSMEN: Joining team skipper Ben Ainslie as co-helm is America's Cup debutant Dylan Fletcher, the Tokyo Olympic champion in the 49er class.
    • TRIMMERS: Leigh McMillan and Bleddyn Mon control the ride height of the boat out of the water and the trim of the mainsail and jib (the sail at the front of the boat).
    • CYCLORS: The four 'cycling sailors' provide the hydraulic power needed to work the masts and sails by pedalling static bikes fixed in the hulls. The British squad of nine, who have been training with the Ineos Grenadiers cycling team to build their endurance, includes four cyclors with Olympic rowing backgrounds.

    Team New Zealand and Britannia (GB) will go head to head in the 37th America's Cup sail racing match, the oldest international sporting competition in the world.

    Britannia, representing the Royal Yacht Squadron from Great Britain, are the challengers. They earned their spot in the final match having won the Louis Vuitton Cup qualifying event by beating 2021 America's Cup runners-up Luna Rossa of Italy, and are the first British team to sail in the America's Cup in 60 years.

    Meanwhile, Team New Zealand represent the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron, and are the two-time defending champions from 2017 and 2021.

    The match will be raced as a best-of-13 series taking place off the coat of Barcelona, with the first boat to seven race wins claiming the America's Cup, which was first contested in 1851. They will race on AC75 monohull foil yachts, which can reach race speed of over 100 km/h.

    Led by sailing legend Ben Ainslie and backed by billionaire businessman and fellow honours recipient Jim Ratcliffe, the British challenge bids to bring home the cup to the country where it all started.
