Mais, si on parle bien de challenger series sélective en AC45, il semblerait qu'un circuit sur le modèle de celui de la dernière coupe (ouvert à toute sorte d'équipes et tremplin pour éventuellement aller plus loin) n'est pas à l'ordre du jour.
Voila ce qu'en dit Gino Morrelli (rapporté par Kimball Livingston) sur Blue Planet Times
Another circuit in AC45s? Here’s Gino: “The 45s attract a lot of interest from the start-up teams. It’s a way to bring in sponsors and show the racing to a home audience. On the upside, it’s pretty easy to convert an AC45 to a foiler. On the downside, the logistics are completely nuts. The circuit was a giant loss leader. No way could it stand on its own. Larry wrote the check for the whole show the last time, but I don’t know how interested he might be in helping those start-up teams get a foothold. He’s already spent so many hundreds of millions on this. I figure the AC45s are a tier 3 decision right now.”
