Ericsson 4 hold their nerve
T
hey’ve busted down the gates and broken free, but not before a night of sweat, stress and toil was done. The fleet’s struggle through the Straits of Gibraltar has been as tough as anticipated, with some long, straight and wide passing lanes. So I was half right – Ericsson 4 got clear of the Straits of Gibraltar with a decent amount of her lead still intact, but her sistership didn’t.

Alfa Romeo is the Winner of Barcolana 40
E
ngaging and full of unexpected turns of events, despite the light wind. A definition that may seem a paradox for a race which instead suits Barcolana 40. Predictions held true, with Alfa Romeo first but the overall trend of the race was surprising.
