Mathematically, only four teams can make it to this three-boat showdown: Emirates GBR, the Black Foils, the BONDS Flying Roos, and Los Gallos.

After a stunning comeback victory at the DP World Spain Sail Grand Prix in Cádiz, Emirates GBR enters the Mubadala Abu Dhabi Sail Grand Prix 2025 Season Grand Final, presented by Abu Dhabi Sports Council, in pole position.

Dylan Fletcher and his crew produced a thrilling performance in the three-boat final in Spain, overcoming a start line penalty and pulling off a miraculous final move to become favourites to lift the Rolex SailGP Championship trophy in Abu Dhabi.

In a nail-biting finish, they overtook the Black Foils just metres from the line, marking their third win of the season and propelling them to the top of the overall standings by three points.

With momentum on their side, Emirates GBR heads into Abu Dhabi brimming with confidence and ambition.
