Something about him that you don't know: Although he was born in Argentina, 'Cicco' has been living and working in Italy for a long time – and admits that he feels as much Italian as he does Argentinian.
Who he is: With a wealth of experience across Volvo Ocean Race and America's Cup campaigns, Cicchetti returns to round-the-world racing for a third attempt at the trophy having previously competed in 2008-09 and 2014-15. A world Champion in the RC44 sailing class and a highly sort after trimmer in the TP52’s, he offers invaluable top-level racing experience to Team Brunel.
