As Crown Racing’s inaugural principal partner, Bahrain Victorious 13 have brought in their maestros of short-course racing to reclaim the title they won in 2022.
Paris Olympic gold medallist Cassandre Beaugrand leads their women’s team alongside Georgia Taylor-Brown, a three-time Olympic medallist and two-time supertri champion. The 2023 supertri champion Kate Waugh adds even more firepower.
The men are headlined by Paris Olympic silver medallist and 2022 supertri champion Hayden Wilde. Two-time supertri winner Vincent Luis is back with a point to prove after being overlooked for the France team for a home Olympics, while E-World Championships silver medalist Max Stapley also lines up.
A further male and female athlete will be confirmed shortly to round out the roster.
Bahrain Victorious 13 CEO, supertri co-founder, and four-time triathlon world champion Chris McCormack will become Crown Racing’s manager. His stacked team is aiming for nothing less than the title this year.
McCormack said, “Crown Racing has a very simple mission: to win. Having Bahrain Victorious 13 as the team’s principal partner means we can draw upon the very best talent in short course triathlon and put together a stellar line-up which has the potential to blow the rest of the field out of the water. I am very confident in this team and that we can restore Crown Racing and Bahrain Victorious to the top of the podium.”
