The 2021 Prada Challenger’s Trophy is a sailing competition held to determine the challenger in the 2021 America’s Cup. The races are being held from January 15 to February 22, 2021 in Auckland, New Zealand and were preceded by the 2019–20 America’s Cup World Series.

The best of today

When the Prada Cup final gets underway on Saturday, Pierluigi de Felice will be the only New Zealander on board either of the two boats. While his name underscores his Italian heritage — he was born and raised in Naples — de Felice also has a strong connection to this country. And, the Luna Rossa grinder and trimmer is talking a big game about his team’s chances.

In case you missed it

Mana whenua of central Tāmaki (Auckland) are set to launch a “fan-zone area” on their whenua which overlooks the Waitematā Harbour where the America’s Cup final will take place. Takaparawhau, or Bastion Pt, sits beneath Ōrākei Marae, rich in history and rich in views. A prime location for whānau and supporters to bring their gazebos and binoculars.

Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei chairwoman Marama Royal said various workshops and stalls will be set up throughout the lookout point, as well as activities which encourage participants to engage in Takaparawhau’s history. Takaparawhau is set to launch next week.
Coming tomorrow Sailing Professor Mark Orams makes his pick for who will win the Prada Cup final and move on to face Team New Zealand. Read his column in the Herald print edition and online tomorrow morning.

Prada Cup — Semi-Final 2021 Prada Cup, Luna Rossa competed in the 2000 America’s Cup Match, in Auckland, which was its best result to date. They had a solid run to the Challenger Semi-finals in 2003 and Finals in 2007. In 2013 they were a late entry. Although they didn’t physically compete in 2017, the team was the first to gear up to full strength after the 2013 Cup.

In March 2015, Luna Rossa pulled the pin on their campaign following the switch of class from the restricted AC62 to the one-design AC50, nine months after entries had opened. Luna Rossa was well-advanced in its 2017 campaign, and the late class switch, after a 3–2 vote completely wiped out several years of hard work, and their competitive advantage over the teams that were late to start up and favoured moving to a largely one-design class.

But Luna Rossa did support Emirates Team New Zealand in the 2017 Cup, with several team members, to ensure the Italians were current, and in a good position to go again for 2021.

The other Prada Cup finalist INEOS Team UK, evolved from the 2017 Challenger Land Rover BAR, begat of Team Origin which was formed in 2008. That effort was but put on ice with the home Olympics in the UK in 2012, and so many of the team involved.

Again the Brits had a base infrastructure from which to start, and while they made plenty of mistakes in the 2017 America’s Cup, they learned from them, and emerged much the stronger from the Bermuda experience.

New York YC has been less successful as a Challenger than it was as Defender — holding the America’s Cup for 132 years — the longest winning stretch in sporting history. Since losing the Cup in 1983, New York has never made a Challenger Final, for either the Louis Vuitton Cup/Trophy, or now the Prada Cup. (There were no US Trials conducted for the defence of the 2013 and 2017 Cups, and NYYC was excluded.)
