About us
SailGP, the world’s most exciting racing on water, is grand prix racing like you’ve never seen before – and one of the world’s fastest growing sport and entertainment properties. Flying identical, high-tech F50 boats faster than the wind, at speeds close to 100 km/h are driven by the sport’s top athletes. Leaders in purpose driven and sustainable sport, SailGP is showing how sport can inspire change with the world-first Impact League: a second podium for the planet, with teams scored on purposeful action in addition to their racing skill. SailGP promotes best-in-class environmental and DEI policies for lasting positive impact in our #RacefortheFuture.

Our Chief Technology Officer, Warren Jones, took the stage with T-Mobile For Business to dive into the game-changing role of #5G in sports. He was joined by an impressive lineup of industry leaders, from Major League Baseball (MLB), Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix and PGA of America, with Mike Fitz from T-Mobile For Business hosting the discussion. The conversation highlighted how T-Mobile’s 5G network is reshaping sports, from streamlining operations to delivering immersive fan experiences. Warren provided insights into how SailGP’s events are elevated by T-Mobile’s ship-to-shore 5G solutions. Each F50 boat is equipped with 125 sensors, transmitting 30,000 data points every second, which amounts to a staggering 48 billion data points on a single race day. This real-time data helps teams make split-second decisions that can affect strategy and performance. T-Mobile’s 5G technology also brings our fans closer to the action. Traditional hard-wired cameras aren’t feasible for water-based events, but 5G allows us to deploy wireless, broadcast-quality cameras, giving fans a front-row seat to the race from anywhere. Whether on the open water or in complex venues like New York City, T-Mobile helps us tackle some of the most demanding environments. With every race, T-Mobile For Business enables us to push boundaries, experiment with new technologies, and continuously improve the experience for our fans, athletes, coaches, and operations teams. #SportsTech #SailGP #MWCLasVegas #Innovation #FanExperience #TMobileforBusiness
