 VOR65  Ocean Race 2017/18  Leg 3  Day 9
The windy conditions on the South-Indian Ocean still provide for high speeds and the leading duo seems to be somewhat faster as the rest of the fleet. The frontrunners 'Dongfeng' (Charles Caudrelier FRA) 'Mapfre' (Xabi Fernandez) have been racing practically neck and neck and there was even a port-starboard situation in the middle of nowhere on the 48th parallel South forcing 'Mapfre' to ease their masthead sail and arc up to avoid hitting 'Dongfeng' having taken the lead again with 6nm this morning UTC. On rank 3 with a 70nm backlog follows 'Vestas' (Charlie Enright USA). 'Brunel' (Bouwe Bekking NED) reduced her deficit on 20nm.
