Gitana Team sailor Charles Caudrelier takes a break in the Azores. The Arkéa Ultim Challenge regulations authorize a technical stopover.

The Maxi Edmond de Rothschild, 1,200 miles from arrival in Brest, should return to sea. The solid leader of the solo round-the-world race on the giants of the seas will be joined in the morning by a few members of his technical team to help him during this stopover, after 44 days of racing.
