Tough to watch for us Aussies, but what an event.
Los Gallos ended Australia’s three-Championship winning streak and wrote themselves into the history books against all odds. Poor fleet race results, combined with France’s blistering race starts, saw Spain close to losing its place in the Grand Final. But when racing continued on day two, disaster struck – with the French crashing into ROCKWOOL DEN to pick up season-ending penalty points and serious damage to their F50.
Perfect start line execution propelled Spain into an early lead when the Grand Final began and, despite Australia coming close to overtaking, Los Gallos managed to cross the finish line in the nick of time, sealing their first ever Championship win on the iconic waters of San Francisco Bay.
We recap all the action from the adrenaline-filled spectacle, including racing highlights, driver reactions and five moments you might have missed.
