Hur skulle vädret och temperaturen vara nu på den sträckan som i så fall skulle vara aktuell? Skulle det vara samma besättningsmän nu som förra gången tror ni?
Malizia II är uppenbarligen redan runt ögruppen Azorerna. Det verkar som att spekulationen i mitt förra inlägg stämde. Frågan är var de tar vägen efter tävlingen.

The Portuguese Option
On a route further south towards Portugal, Charal is leading the way ahead of Apivia, 11th Hour, PRB, Initiatives Coeur, Banque Populaire, Arkea Paprec, PRB, Groupe Apicil and Corum l’Epargne. A narrow corridor is opening up to the east of the Azores high on the 31st. Getting around the high may be easier than forecast, and may even go very well, if the skippers manage to keep going on 31st October. By the 1stNovember, these skippers will be in the trade winds taking them to the Doldrums. There is one small problem with that strategy. The Portuguese group will pick up the trade winds earlier, but with the wind directly from astern, and so they will have to gybe, while those that have gone for the West, will be able to take a direct route at high speed towards the Equator.
The middle way
Malizia and Prysmian Group have chosen an option in between, which may well pay off. It is likely that they will meet up with the group further south after the front goes over this evening. By Friday, things should start to become clearer, but the suspense may well last until the Doldrums, which the leaders are likely to enter early next week.
