Volvo Ocean Race



Volvo Ocean Race fleet sails out of Gothenburg for tense last leg

  • The 700-kilometer “sprint” to The Hague starts with Spanish boat Mapfre and the Dutch Team Brunel tied on 65 points. Chinese entry Dongfeng is a point behind.
  • Dongfeng skipper Charles Caudrelier: “We will take our rests on the deck and not inside the boat. We will be adjusting the boat all the time. It is going to be a long in-shore day race, there’s no time for dreaming.”
