Ulysse Nardin - Artemis Racing wins in Bermuda
Artemis Racing claimed a dramatic victory in the final Louis Vuitton America's Cup World Series event of the year.
The team headed to Bermuda with plenty to prove, and after racing was abandoned on Saturday, three races were scheduled for Sunday.
Team Manager and Tactician, Iain Percy, spoke of his relief after a trying few months. "I'm very proud of the team. We had a lot of pressure to perform”.
Winning the Bermuda event means that Artemis Racing rises to fourth place in the overall series rankings, and puts an important marker down in the venue for the 35th America's Cup in 2017.
"To be the first team to win an event in Bermuda, the venue of the next America’s Cup is just great for our team. We love it here; we’ve been training here all year, getting ready for the main event in 2017. Our results elsewhere haven’t been great but all that matters is how well we sail in this venue", said Outteridge.
It was an important victory for the team who struggled in the first two events in Portsmouth and Gothenburg, and Iain Percy spoke of what it will mean for the wider group.
"We’re a big team, and for every one of the sailors to go out today and perform, is a real boost going into the winter. You can’t buy that; you can’t put a value on a team knowing 100% that they are here to win this #competition. Everyone will be working that little bit harder, and we’re going to have that little spring in our step through the whole winter. It’s going to project us towards winning in 2017".
Ulysse Nardin as Official Partner of Artemis Racing is extending its congratulations to the whole team. “Artemis Racing’s victory of the ACWS in Bermuda marks an important milestone in our cooperation with the Artemis Racing Team and we are proud to be associated with a team that showed their full talent following a collision with an umpire boat” said Patrik Hoffmann, CEO of Ulysse Nardin.
