What would you do if a Copa América team called you to join your ranks? I understand that if you are reading these lines it is because you are regatists or fans of the candle, so your response would be a resounding yes. Because the lovers of this sport are dazzled by the Jug of one hundred Guineas, for their prestige, for its history, for the budgets and emotions that moves, for being the summit of the sport of the candle. Enroll in one of your teams? Head.
That is the answer that was waiting for Diego Botín. The Olympic Gold of Class 49er in the Paris 2024 and Patron of the National F50 of SAILGP seems an ideal profile to get to the controls of a possible Spanish cup team. I have written “possible” conscientiously, although some you will think that it should having typed “almost impossible.” OK. Well, if it is not for a Spanish union, presuming that we can fight the rule of the nationalities of the Cup, Botín would be a good signing for any of the challenges Already underway or to come, from any country. His talent and abilities would be a good “booty.”
But, oh surprise! I asked the question and answered that the Copa América was not part of its plans or its desires. It may simply be a matter of caution, or loyalty to Sailgp, but the answer left me thoughtful. Are your centenary competition losing your aura? Are you winning the SailGP departure? Without a doubt, the flying catamaranes circuit is doing things well. Events in the middle world, with an intense calendar that offers stability to regatists and good visibility to sponsors, well -selected national teams, short and understandable regattas, stands full of fans, and an agile format that is evolving. Agility can never be the heritage of the Copa América, which lives prostrated to a protocol originally written in 1857. But it is precisely this story that raises the cup as the summit of our sport, the most prestigious competition, the most desired and most difficult to achieve.
He reflected on it when a week ago the civil war broke out in the ranks of the British union, the ineos Britannia. The divorce between Jim Ratcliffe, the British tycoon owner of INEOS, and Ben Ainslie, the most laureate Olympic waterproof of all time and CEO and patron of the ineos Britannia in the 37th Copa América, is not good news for the organization. Both parties claim for themselves the British challenge title of the 38th edition and could enter a legal litigation to clarify who is the Challenger of Record. As a winner in Barcelona, Emirates Team New Zealand must organize the next appointment and agree with the first challenging certain details, which have to be announced as soon as possible to ensure sports and commercial continuity. Who will Grant Dalton, CEO of the Kiwi team? It is true that these disputes are part of the charm of the cup, but the conflict could cause delays in the announcement of headquarters and dates. This would be difficult to see in Sailgp … A weight of weight for loot, sure.
