In this episode, we sit down with Martine Grael, a two-time Olympic gold medalist, World Champion, and Pan-American Games champion, who is now making history as the first female driver in SailGP. Martine is also leading the Mubadala Brazil SailGP Team, the first-ever South American team to compete in the high-stakes SailGP Championship.

We caught up with Martine in the team hangar in Dubai, just days before the season opener. During our conversation, Martine takes us on an inspiring journey:

How her childhood on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro and growing up in a family of sailors shaped her passion for the sport.The setbacks she faced on her road to Olympic glory and how she used those moments to fuel her comeback.Insights from her experiences in the grueling Volvo Ocean Race and what it taught her about teamwork and perseverance.Her excitement and vision as she steps into her role as driver for the Mubadala Brazil SailGP Team.

Martine’s story is one of resilience, determination, and trailblazing achievements.
