Giles Scott Secures First SailGP Win for Britain in Halifax

Scott leads Emirates GBR to victory under challenging conditions, while Australia's capsize shakes up the standings.

Scott replaced Ben Ainslie as skipper earlier this year and secured his first win in SailGP.
The victory came in the inaugural Canadian Sail Grand Prix in Halifax, characterized by heavy rain and strong winds.
Australia's capsize in the final fleet race was attributed to a technical issue, preventing them from reaching the podium race.
Britain's consistent performance throughout the weekend earned them a spot in the three-boat final against France and Denmark.
The win places Britain sixth overall in the season standings, with two events remaining before the Grand Final in San Francisco.
