U.S. SailGP Team’s Valencia Win and Geneva Weekend Air Sunday on CBS
National broadcast airs October 25, covering racing from Spain and Switzerland

SailGP returns to CBS this Sunday, October 25, at 5 p.m. ET, with coverage of two recent stops in the 2026 Rolex SailGP Championship: the Spain Sail Grand Prix in Valencia and the Rolex Switzerland Sail Grand Prix in Geneva.
In Valencia, the U.S. SailGP Team took its second event win of the season to keep its Grand Final dream alive.
A week later on Lac Léman, an enforced driver change following injuries to Taylor Canfield and Harry Melges IV forced the team to rework its lineup, signing Olympic legend Martine Grael.
In doing so, the Crew became the first team in SailGP history to race with two female athletes aboard as Martine joined Anna Weis on the F50.
CBS Sports has broadcast SailGP in the U.S. since 2019. Last November’s Race to Abu Dhabi drew 3.469 million viewers (Nielsen), the largest U.S. audience for a SailGP broadcast and the most-watched sailing race in U.S. history. It beat the previous record of 3.266 million, set by the 1992 America’s Cup on ABC.
