La Roche-Posay Racing Team's fullest AC75 match-racing day yet in Naples

The America's Cup Recon channel has released its Day 20 highlights from Naples, following La Roche-Posay Racing Team through what it describes as the team's most complete match-racing session yet. It's worth a watch for a look at AC75 pre-start work and full race practice in a choppy, shifting breeze.

The footage covers windward-leeward laps, pre-start timing drills and a full race drill to finish the day.

The team's most complete match-racing session yet in Naples, from windward-leeward laps to a full race drill.

La Roche-Posay Racing Team out on the AC75 in Naples on Saturday 7 November 2026. Quentin Delapierre and Diego Botín worked through windward-leeward laps and two pre-start drills on timing to the line, sailing all six runs from self-sailed take-offs. After a mid-session shift the team changed to the J4 and closed the day with a full race drill, a pre-start off the chase boat followed by windward-leeward legs, docking in before five.

Conditions: SSE 12–14 kn fading to 4–8 kn, then WNW 10–13 kn | very choppy over leftover swell, flatter after the shift | cloud with sunny breaks
