Louis Vuitton Cup – Dubai – Ritorna la Louis Vuitton Cup. Questo è il frutto dell’accordo raggiunto tra l’America’s Cup Event Authority e il management di Louis Vuitton. La partnership, annunciata questo pomeriggio a Dubai, non si ferma alle challenger selection series del 2013. Già dal 2011, infatti, Louis Vuitton sarà official time keeper degli appuntamenti del nuovo Campionato del Mondo AC45.

Come in passato, quindi, anche la Louis Vuitton Cup 2013 servirà per definire il nome del team che sfiderà BMW Oracle Racing, l’attuale Defender, per la conquista del trofeo sportivo più antico della storia.

La Louis Vuitton Cup si disputerà nell’estate del 2013 e si concluderà all’inizio di autunno, pochi giorni prima dell’inizio dell’America’s Cup. Protagonisti saranno i multiscafi costruiti sotto l’egida del regolamento AC72.

“Siamo elettrizzati all’idea di poter annunciare la continuazione di una partnership trentennale con la Coppa America. Dopo aver incontrato più volte i team siamo convinti che la prossima sarà la miglior Coppa America di sempre” ha annunciato Yves Carcelle, CEO e presidente di Louis Vuitton.

“Siamo davvero orgogliosi che la nostra visione dell’America’s Cup abbia attratto un marchio come Louis Vuitton – ha detto Richard Worth, presidente dell’America’s Cup Event Authority – Proprio nel 2013 si celebreranno i trent’anni della Louis Vuitton Cup ed è anche per questo che la notizia odierna rappresenta una pietra miliare nella storia della Coppa”.

LOUIS VUITTON CUP 2013, RETURN TO THE ORIGIN
[America’s Cup Press Release] The next major step in realizing its new vision, the America’s Cup Event Authority introduced its first partner, Louis Vuitton. A continuation of its 30-year long association with the America’s Cup, the Parisbased fashion house will present the prize, the Louis Vuitton Cup, to the winner of the America’s Cup Challenger Series, as well as serve as Official Timing for the 34th America’s Cup.

“We are thrilled to announce today the continuation of our 30-year partnership with the America’s Cup. Having met with the team several times, we believe that the 34th edition will be the best America’s Cup yet,” said Yves Carcelle, Chairman and CEO of Louis Vuitton Malletier.

In 2013, the Challenger Series will be staged with the winner earning the right to compete in the America’s Cup Finals. The Challenger series will be once again called the Louis Vuitton Cup, recognizing the brand’s long partnership with the America’s Cup. In addition, Louis Vuitton will be Official Timing for the America’s Cup World Series competitions, promoting its watch collection.

“We are extremely priveleged that our vision for the next America’s Cup has attracted the return of a company like Louis Vuitton,” said Richard Worth, Chairman, America’s Cup Event Authority. “The 34th America’s Cup will culminate in 2013, marking the 30th anniversary of Louis Vuitton’s support of the sport of sailing, so we could not be more proud to see this great partnership continue and strengthen.”

Since 1983, the Louis Vuitton Cup Challenger Series has been held whenever there has been more than one challenger team for the America’s Cup. Its role is twofold – to select the best challenger team from the teams presented and, to prepare the winner for success against the Defender in the following America’s Cup Finals.

“I have competed for the Louis Vuitton Cup three times in the past, so I know how important it is to the Challenger’s success. We welcome the return of Louis Vuitton and look forward to racing the winner of the Louis Vuitton Cup in 2013,” said Russell Coutts, CEO, BMW Oracle Racing.

The Louis Vuitton Cup will be in the summer of 2013, with the America’s Cup Finals in early fall. The events will feature the AC72 wing-masted catamaran, a ground-breaking new boat designed to deliver unparalleled racing competition and on-the-water excitement.

“Louis Vuitton is a House that cherishes the art of travel and the spirit of adventure. As a long-time partner, we are very happy to be able to accompany the future of the America’s Cup,” said Pietro Beccari, Executive Vice-President of Louis Vuitton.
