We may have just learned why Dongfeng Race Team has been so fast downwind…the triple-rigged headsail! Seriously, take a look at the masthead breakage DFRT suffered last night (they’re heading to Ushuaia for a repair/replace) and tell us what you see! We see a mainsail, a solent and a Fr0 below the break and a big downwind sail (red) above the break. We’re not sure that’s what they were running at the time of the breakage but it would sure explain a lot!
