Chinese crew makes waves Down Under

China is one of the new kids on the block when it comes to high performance competitive sailing - but that didn't stop the red boat going head to head with the dynamic host team on the final day of the SailGP in Australia.

Stage one of the SailGP closed on Saturday with Australia in front with 48 points, followed by Japan (45), Britain (35), China and France (tied with 33), and the United States (31).

Sydney Harbour staged the first two-day leg of the series, which throughout the year will take the teams to four other stages in three countries.
