NYYC American Magic Head Coach Tom Burnham on preparing and practicing for the upcoming America's Cup. “One of the biggest pieces of being mentally prepared is to have lived through a lot of the maneuvers and tactical situations already. We are actively trying to expose the team to as many situations as possible so when it comes up in real life it’s going to be easier to manage.”

"If you love sports with machines, the America's Cup is by far where the quest for greatness meets the horizon of technological innovation and strategic talent management." - Eloy Herrero
The America's Cup, often compared to Formula 1, is even more challenging due to its unique format of life-or-death competition, where teams directly compete in intense boat-against-boat regattas. Each edition brings specific technological challenges tailored to the boat rules set by the defender. For that reason AC campaigns are such a space launch and that environment promotes continuous innovation and a war for hiring the best technological talent to face the new challenges of the competition. In this article I tell you my personal vision.
