It’s straight ahead to Bahia in the trade wind, dotted with small squalls. Arrivals at night are sometimes complicated, with wind nowhere to be found.

Class 40: They’re on the road

Final stretch for the race leaders in well-established south-easterlies making good speeds of more than 10 knots; the others will struggle a little in the “Doldrums”, which have reactivated significantly.

At the back, the trade wind from the north is slowly returning.
