Help Us Bring SGP Series 13 to the World

No engines. No noise. Just pure pilot skill, raw atmospheric energy, and gliders racing wing-to-wing at speeds of up to 300 km/h.

The FAI Sailplane Grand Prix (SGP) is the Formula One of the Sky. But let's be honest: for too long, the sheer adrenaline of this sport has been one of aviation’s best-kept secrets. Unless you are in the cockpit, it is incredibly difficult to truly feel the speed, the tension, and the split-second tactical decisions that decide a race.

For Series 13, we are changing that. But we can’t do it alone. We are launching two initiatives to completely revolutionize how the world sees glider racing, and we are asking for your help.

To the Visionary Brands: Read Our Series 13 Partnership Deck

Motorsport is changing. The world is moving away from fossil fuels and noise, and looking for sustainable, pure performance. We’ve been doing exactly that for 20 years.

We have just released our Series 13 Partnership Deck, and we want you to read it. We aren't just looking to slap logos on a fuselage; we are looking for partners who want to align with a natively zero-emission sport that uses the most dramatic mountain ranges on Earth as its racetrack.

The deck outlines our roadmap for the future of flight, from racing in breathtaking global locations culminating in the World Final in Vitacura, Chile, to our ambitious plans for fully electric launches, two-seater "Pro-Am" racing, and a one-class/one-design fleet where victory is decided 100% by skill and 0% by checkbook engineering.

If your company values genuine sustainability, technological innovation, and reaching an audience that appreciates quiet excellence and high performance, we have a seat for you.

👉 Download and read the Partnership Deck today, and reach out to us at media@sgp.aero to start the conversation.

To Our Community and Fans: We Need You!

Corporate partners will help us build the infrastructure, but we need you, the gliding community and SGP fans, to help us capture the magic.

In the next few days, we are launching a Crowdfunding Campaign to completely overhaul our live broadcast and media capabilities. Our starting goal is €15,000, and every single cent will go directly to our media crews to build the technology we desperately need:

  • Live On-Board Action: We are developing specialized, lightweight cameras to survive the extreme cockpit environment and beam live, high-altitude video directly to the broadcast. We want to put the audience right over the pilot's shoulder.

  • Agile Ground Production: We want to equip our teams with fast, mobile kits to capture the raw emotion on the launch grid and the tension as pilots cross the finish line.

  • Going Beyond: If we smash our €15,000 goal, we aren't stopping. Extra funds will unlock professional-grade cinematic gear, drones and long-range telephoto tracking cameras, to turn the broadcast into a true documentary experience.

By funding this campaign, you aren't just paying for cameras; you are investing in the growth and survival of the sport we all love. A better broadcast means more fans, more pilots, and a stronger global community.

Get ready. The official crowdfunding link drops in a few days. We are counting on you to help us share the magic of flight with the world.

Let’s race together.
