Actualizare Vendée Globe luni după-amiază: Breakout refuzat!



În această dimineață se părea că Sam Goodchild conducea un grup mic într-o erupție de vânturi mai puternice, dar așa cum am văzut până acum în Vendée Globe, lucrurile pot fi de scurtă durată. Vântul este încântător de aproape, dar urmăritorii se apropie repede de el în briza lor. Între timp, spre est, Jean Le Cam călătorește cu aproape 15 noduri, iar ruta sa ar putea încă să aducă dividende. #vg2024 #imoca #vendeeglobe

  1. Hope to see the King Jean taking back the lead at 19h00! Hope he can at least secure his first position as non foiler for the rest of the race! Will be for sure difficult to compete against the top 5 of the foiler pack. Let's see if he can maintain a 16 to 18 knots average boat speed over the next 48h. Will be crucial to pass the doll drums in a fairly convenient manner.

  2. It was predicted that JLC would momentarily appear to be back in the lead in the sense that his is the closest boat to the Cape of Good Hope. But actually the quickest route is more towards Brazil due to the anticlockwise flow in the South Atlantic and a more favourable westerly crossing of the doldrums, and that puts a different complexion on his position. JLC will either have to converge with the main fleet and rejoin their route hundreds of miles behind, or attempt a more direct route in which case he will lose the wind and end up in a less favourable easterly position to cross the doldrums, also ending up hundreds of miles behind. The best he can hope for is light wind for the main fleet either in the next day or two (unlikely, it should fill in today) or around Brazil later in the week – the forecast is a long way off to foresee exactly what will happen then. I would love to see him play a blinder, but I don't see it at the moment.

    I would like to see much more of this type of more nuanced analysis ideally with simulations of what might happen with different courses.
