"For this 35th edition, the French Maison is renewing its commitment to the America’s Cup by becoming the title partner of the America’s Cup World Series, the America’s Cup Qualifiers and Challenger Playoffs, as well as the presenting partner of the America’s Cup Match," the house said in a statement. 

In other words, the brand is going one step further in its support by extending its commitment to the entire event, which will be held in Bermuda in June 2017.

As part of its renewed commitment, the brand will adopt a leading role in all aspects of the event: on land, in the water, on international TV shows, and on the internet.
