IMOCA Open 60 - Vendée Globe 2024 - Les Sables d'Olonne FRA - Day 56

Today, Charlie Dalin FRA and 121 miles behind him Yoann Richomme FRA will cross the equator. One of the two is likely to win, as Sébastien Simon FRA in 3rd place is already 792 miles behind. But the chasers have moved closer together: 4th (Thomas Ruyant FRA) to 10th (Justine Mettraux SUI) are only 300 miles apart. 120 miles ahead of the Swiss is Boris Herrmann GER in 9th place. In stormy conditions, Alan Roura SUI rounded Cape Horn tonight in 17th place. Oliver Heer SUI is still making little progress in the calm of the South Pacific, and he remains on the 30th. ----- The race tracker and the reports.
