0220 UTC / 0420 local time

It's been a great 24 hours for Paul Meilhat's Biotherm crew as they close in on the finishing line... Probably about half an hour to go - a couple more tacks upwind in the light conditions to cross off the final 3 miles.

2330 UTC / 0130 local time

Slow progress upwind in these final miles for Biotherm wth the ETA pushed back to 0430.

 

1715 UTC / 1915 local time

The latest from Race Control in Alicante has the leading trio in the fleet finishing overnight on Friday. The models suggest the most likety time for the leading boat to finish is near 0300 local time (CEST). But there is a lot of uncertainty in the modeling, so it could be slightly earlier if they get just a fraction more wind, or of course slide back if the calms return. We will keep you updated here. Looks like a long night!!
