Arkéa Ultim Challenge: sheltered in the Azores, Caudrelier reveals the (major) damage to his trimaran. On a large part of the boat's starboard front arm, we can see the fairing is completely torn off, following a violent wave impact.
Thomas Coville, who crossed the equator, is 2479 miles from the leader with Banque Populaire. Anthony Marchand (Actual Ultim, at 5376 miles) and Éric Péron (at 5588 miles) bring up the rear of the rankings.
