The locals from Nice, who are not used to such a race, nevertheless turned out in force to greet the sailors, who we could clearly see were excited to be setting off to see how they measure up against their two rivals.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Grey skies and light airs today<\/strong><br \/>\nOnce again the wind was not what they were all hoping for.. It was on a flat calm sea that the boats headed towards the start line. These conditions favoured Actual Grand Large Emotion, who logically took the lead, followed by the crew on IDEC SPORT with SODEBO at the rear. The wind has since strengthened somewhat and Joyon and his lads are making the most of this, as they head towards Marseille at around 13 knots. Conditions are likely to strengthen\u00a0 further over the coming hours, so they will need to be cautious during this first night of racing.<\/p>\n<p>To follow the race <a href=\"https:\/\/niceultimed.geovoile.com\/2018\/race\/tracker\/en\/\">click here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After four days spent moored up in the harbour (with the exception of the exhibition runs), the IDEC SPORT maxi-trimaran with her crew of six &#8211; Francis Joyon, Bernard Stamm, Gw\u00e9nol\u00e9 Gahinet, Quentin Ponroy, S\u00e9batien Picault and Antoine Blouet \u2013 set off to tackle the Mediterranean at two minutes past one local time today.
