Yoann Richhomme FRA (Arkea-Paprec) is still in the lead, the newcomer to the class is doing excellently! Jérémy Beyou FRA (Charal) is 70 miles behind in 2nd place, while Sam Goodchild GBR (For the planet) is already 105 miles behind in 3rd place. Samantha Davies GBR (Initiatives Coeur) leads the women's race in 7th place. Alan Roura SUI (Hublot) was able to hold on to 17th place, but the midfield has gone into the doldrums in the centre of the low. Accordingly, his gap has grown to 620 miles.
