The biggest prize pot in sailing was up for grabs in Abu Dhabi in the SailGP Grand Final over the weekend.

We take a look at how the starts were won in the light winds on Day 1, and then see who won the start in the three-boat Grand Final itself where Tom Slingsby's Australian BONDS Flying Roos, Peter Burling's New Zealand Black Foils and Dylan Fletcher's Emirates Great Britain team battled it out, and then what the winning move was that sealed the 2025 Season title.

We finish with interviews of the winning sailors.
