    The America's Cup challenger on record has crashed while testing


    Italy's Luna Rossa dismantled their AC75 while out on a sea trial off the coast of Marina de Capitana.

    No crew were injured and damage is thought to be minimal.

    The four teams expected to compete in the America's Cup in 2021 will compete in Cagliari in Sardinia for a World Series stop in late April.
