Vendée Globe Day 85: Who s next?

Sunday has scarcely been a day of rest on the Vendée Globe even if it is the first day since last Tuesday that Les Sables d Olonne has not welcomed a finisher across the line and into the famous channel. Preparations have been in full swing for the arrival of the Armel Tripon (L Occitaine en Provence) who is due early Monday morning and should take 11th position. But not for the first time in the history of the Vendée Globe will a skipper s last 24 hours be possibly the toughest of his race. This is especially true for the forty-five-year-old skipper from Nantes who at times was blessed with some very straightforward routing in the south. Tripon will come in the heels of a depression which is expected to have gusts of 45 knots and bring 5 to 6m waves on the finish line.

All bets are off, open season for the Vendée Globe podium

By Daniel Smith © Thomas Ruyant / LinkedOut All bets are off. Normally by the 64th day of recent editions of the Vendée Globe, the solo non-stop race round the world has been distilled down to a choice of two or at the outside three potential winners. But as the group of six chasing solo racers are now compressed to within 300 miles of leader Yannick Bestaven, and the skipper of Maître Coq IV has seen his lead of 435 miles melt like snow in the Brazilian sun, to be just 38 miles ahead of Charlie Dalin (Apivia) this afternoon, it is clear any one of the top six or seven boats could hope to break the Les Sables d Olonne finish line first later this month, probably around the 28th or 29th. Indeed by tomorrow Tuesday there seems every chance that the leader for 17 days might have been passed.
