Actualizare Vendée Globe de sâmbătă dimineața - Yoann Richomme la încărcare și până pe locul 2



În timp ce liderul Charlie Dalin pe MACIF Santé Prévoyance a parcurs 50% din cursă, trecând de jumătatea teoretică, Yoann Richomme pe Paprec Arkéa este cel care este în sarcină, depășindu-l pe Sébastien Simon pe Groupe Dubreuil. Vă oferim cele mai recente instrumente de urmărire și clasament, plus opțiuni PredictWind pentru Richomme, precum și actualizări de la Charlie Dalin, Giancarlo Pedote, Nico Lunven, Boris Herrmann și mările muntoase cu care se confruntă Damien Seguin în prezent. #vg2024 #imoca #vendeeglobe #sailing

  1. Thank you, great insights as always! So much easier to understand when the brave sailors record a video rather than doing a live transmission. I love most the discussion on different tactics and why they might choose different routes, maybe also retrospectives how it worked out. More of that would be great.
    You are doing a great job!

  2. It’s funny- we see the boats charging along, we see the lines messy running everywhere, we see the stern wave, the swells, white caps, the foils sets, poles vanged out, leeward runners flogging, main triple reefed, keel swung… and always- the skippers sitting down below rocking around, dry and in just gym clothes… who’s really out there doing the sailing??

  3. Scenario seems to change. Long time weather systems favoured the front, now we see that anti-cyclonic events are developping between P1 and P10 and moving west to east, so in an extrem scenario we could see a complete fleet compression from P1 to P13

    The coming hours are CRITICAL for the head, the challenge is to not be caught up by the anticyclone moving behind toward east.

    We see that Charlie Dalin is in a good position. Until now he hasn't made mistakes (contrary to Thomas who has been recently swallowed by an anticyclonic area where Jérémie and Nico chose to avoid this by shifting to north).

    As said before, Verdier's design is the best in light zone, so Charlie with MACIF has the best weapon to meet this kind of challenge to manage better than the others the "transitional zones" so there are some chances that "little Charlie" could slip away "alone" and quasi defintively due to the great agility of MACIF.

    For Yohan and Seb this seems to be possible to follow Charlie, but we must have in mind that Seb has broken one foil, so this may be complicated for him in the next days. The boat of Yohan is a little less agile in light zone, the boat of Seb is roughly the same as Charlie, but first Charlie IS THE MASTER, Seb is good…. but behind Charlie, and second Seb is paying a gap created before (not mentioning his broken foil). We see that situation is CRITICAL, there are many tiny "doors" that are only open within a short delay, any mistake or too slow crossing and the door is closed, the boat being either swallowed by a wind hole, or has to change the route to find another door (what we call in french in figurative way "passage à niveau", "railroad crossing'", one must pass railroad crossing in a specific delay, if not you know what happens).

    For Jérémie, Nico, Thomas…. this seems to be "possibly" feasible, but the situation is even more CRITICAL and challenging, in a figurative way "railroad crossing" are more critical for them because there are even less time margins. The situation is in fact totally uncertain, this is for the next hours the most thrilling part of the race.

    We see since few days the boat of Jérémie not being bad. Nico has a good boat (close to Seb and Charlie) but he is paying a lack of experience compared to Charlie who seems to be able to finely tune his boat.
    This is the same thing for Jérémie. He knows perfectly his machine, and is able to tune it as Charlie does, but Charal and MACIF are different per design.

    Not succeeding in passing the next "railroad crossing " in the good delay, and this group will be caught up by the back fleet until P13

    For Sam (Goodchild), Paul, Yannick… we see that doors are definitively closed, they will be caught up by the following group in the coming hours. This is probably definitively closed for a possible win.
    I would give a special red card to Yannick who does a mediocre race not desserving at all his status of winner of VDG 2020. His boat is a sisterhip of Seb's boat…. needless to say that he has a first class machine.
    His coach said "don't attack" let the others getting tired. I can't give respect to people who are only awaiting mistakes, misfortunes on others to only "possibly" win with opportunism. Yannick never come back to VDG. At any moment, we never saw him in attack mode contrary to Jérémie and Nico who are fighting to change their destiny.

    At last we see Boris in a more "suitable" position given the quality of his boat and what we expected from Boris. He could be back again to compete for P3, pehraps P2 (depending on how Yohann and Seb manage or not manage to follow Charlie and possibly escape). For P1…. this is at this point unprobable (except unexpected issue, but be won't speak of unpredictable events), as said before, Charlie has the perfect weapon to twart a possible back fleet catch up… a versatil boat more agile in transitional zone than the others, this is the "design philosophy" of the technical team (François Gabart's "Mer concept"), and architect (Guillaume Verdier) for MACIF as opposed to Malizia chosing the Alex Thomson's, Jean Le Cam's philosophy, a boat heavily designed for strong downwind but often in bad situation when it comes to manage light transitional zones.

  4. By the 1400 sched, and certainly by the 1800 sched the die will be cast. The leader will have crossed the high pressure, and the two contenders in second and third will have to wait for some time, in the High pressure area. By the time Dalin reaches Antipode Island his lead will have grown by quite a bit.

  5. Thank you again for the informations and the videos from a few sailors, specially from Boris. 8 1/2 m high waves. I am getting sick just watching that 😲.
    I wish all ladies and men just the best and keep my fingers crossed ✊️🤞🌊⛵️💙🌎🌬🫶
