Arkéa Ultim Challenge: Caudrelier leads the fleet, intense start to the race

Here we go for at least forty days of fighting and intense struggle. After a little over 17 hours of racing and a start on Sunday in Brest, the six competitors in the Arkéa Ultim Challenge are inevitably holding each other close. Only 17 miles separate the leader from 5th, Anthony Marchand (Actual Ultim 3). At 7 a.m. this Monday morning, Charles Caudrelier (Maxi Edmond de Rothschild) led the debates ahead of Tom Laperche (Trimaran SVR-Lazartigue) and Thomas Coville (Sodebo Ultim 3). Eric Péron (Ultim Adagio) brought up the rear, a little behind.

Five of the six sailors entered had already passed Cape Finisterre, the northwest tip of Spain, for an ultra-fast start to the race. “They went very quickly last night with favorable wind strength and angle. We recorded peaks of 45 knots, underlines Guillaume Rottee, the race director. There have been small changes which are linked to the different intensities between the East and the West. Charles Caudrelier has been benefiting for several hours now. They had to overtake a number of freighters! »

Ranking at 7 a.m. Monday morning:
