Quotes

Race Director Jacques Caraës sets the scene: "For two main reasons this stage is a good warm up, First, it's solo and the Vendée Globe is solo and second we set a course a course that is similar to the reality of deep ocean racing. In total that is pretty much the equivalent of a 2300 miles transatlantic race on a course very carefully selected, because there will be important weather transitions to play, between the Azores and the varying, unsettled wind regimes that can prevail in the IrishIrish Sea. So the sailors must be good boat to boat tacticians, good weather analysts and make their boats go fast all the time. I think the race will be exciting. "
