Volvo coming down to the end

The final stage of the race starts tomorrow at 1500 UTC (1700 local time) from Lorient to Gothenburg, via a pit stop in The Hague*.

It’s a key stage – yes, Abu Dhabi Ocean Racing has already secured the overall trophy, but four boats are still competing for the second and third places.

The forecast? A north-northwest wind, with the land breeze kicking in during the day and an average wind speed around 10 knots.
