IMOCA Open 60 - Vendée Globe 2024 - Les Sables d'Olonne FRA - Day 6 - Jean Le Cam FRA übernimmt Führung

As expected, there was an upheaval in the classification yesterday when the doldrums zone was reached: ----- Jean Le Cam FRA (Tout commence en Finistère) was able to get around the leading group in the doldrums in the east along the coast of Morocco and is also the only one sailing at a speed of more than 10 knots this morning. Gian-Carlo Pedote ITA ('Prysmian') is in 2nd place, 7 miles behind, Benjamin Ferré FRA ('Monnoyeur') is in 3rd, 25 miles behind. Alan Roura SUI ('Hublot') has made a huge leap to 4th place, 29 miles behind. Samantha Davis GBR ('Initiatives Coeur') is now the best classified woman in 6th place. Justine Mettraux SUI ('Teamwork/Team Snef') has dropped back to 17th place, 77 miles behind. Oliver Heer SUI (tut gut) was able to reduce his deficit to 156 miles and is now 31st. Jean Le Cam FRA is the only one trying his luck in the south. It remains to be seen who will be the first to reach the trade winds. The weather conditions are still very unusual. ----- The race tracker and the reports.
