Transat Jacques Vabre : les dernières infos Tip & Shaft

The 2021 edition of the Transat Jacques Vabre Normandie Le Havre has proven a tough, challenging racing contested amidst an improbable weather scenario. The Class40 fleet, still led by Redman, is not expected until the night of November 28-29 but otherwise the finishes for the Ocean Fifty, Ultimes and Imoca have followed one after another since Monday. Here is an opportunity for Tip & Shaft to take stock, looking at the three finished classes, even if to date only the first two Imoca have crossed the finish line of this edition of the Route du Café.

Last Thursday saw the press conference to present the Transat Jacques Vabre Normandie-Le Havre at the Maison de la Radio in Paris. It was a great opportunity for Tip & Shaft to talk to the race director Francis Le Goff who has just completed the Solitaire du Figaro as race director and looks forward to the Route du Rhum in 2022.
