He will then begin another stand-by phase for another attempt.<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u201cWith extremely violent squalls and long periods of calm, I thought about it for a long time before asking Marcel van Triest about whether it was worth continuing our attempt,\u201d explained Francis. \u201cIt seems that this unforeseen delay in getting to the Equator, means we won\u2019t be able to hop onto the lows forming off Cape Frio in Brazil. If we continued on our route, we would probably reach the Cape of Good Hope too far behind the record.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe\u2019re not giving up. The idea of turning back is always part of this challenge and we had talked about it before the start in Brest last weekend. We shall be heading back into the squalls in the Doldrums and hope to reach Brest next Sunday to go on stand by again.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Francis Joyon decided this morning to stop his attempt at the Jules Verne Trophy round the world record.
