IMOCA Open 60 - Vendée Globe 2016/17 - Day 70

The leader duo passed the Canaries and is now heading straight to Cape Finisterre pushed by a well-established rear wind. The backlog of Alex Thomson GBR on Armel Le Cléac’h FRA was 109 nm this morning. The remaining 1'450 nm to the finish will probably be a drag race. Action will be ahead of the group of 4 on the ranks 10 to 14, approaching Cape Horn where a 50 kn storm will stress boats and skippers to the utmost.
