more information
In December 2021 Alinghi founder Ernesto Bertarelli announced Alinghi Red Bull Racing as a joint venture. Red Bull founder, the late Dietrich Mateschitz, wanted a close sports partnership rather than pure sponsorship. Red Bull Advanced Technologies provides strong technical support, applying strengths gained from their success with the Red Bull Racing Formula One team. Alinghi Red Bull Racing's operations are led by three co-general managers: Pierre-Yves Jorand - Sports Director, Silvio Arrivabene - Technology Director, and Michel Hodara - Commercial Director. The team bought Emirates Team New Zealand's first AC75. After a complete systems refit, they began sailing it in August of 2022.
