The Black Foils' tech team were given a major task after a crash in Perth in the opening round of Sail GP. 

A roughly 2-meter structural segment was sheared off in the impact, and had to be fabricated from scratch in the UK before being shipped to Auckland for final assembly.

Black Foils driver Peter Burling joins Piney to praise the tech teams efforts, and preview the race this afternoon.
