The seventh and final leg of The Ocean Race 2022-23 has reached its thrilling
finale.

After five months of arduous racing around the world, the fleets have arrived in
Genova, Italy. But the overall IMOCA race winner is yet to be decided...

The Ocean Race
Team Holcim-PRB protest against 11th Hour Racing ruled 'invalid' ahead of
redress hearing
17 HOURS AGO
We wait to hear what is going to happen and you can catch the arrival of the
11th Hour Racing team later on Thursday with a FREE live stream that you can see
linked at the top of the page.
Follow all the action on Eurosport and discovery+, and keep track of the boats
via the live tracker here.


THURSDAY JUNE 29


08:50

We've got our first bit of big news!
The International Jury has ruled that the protest lodged by Team Holcim-PRB is
invalid. Now we wait for the results of the Redress.



08:00

Today is the big one!
Yes today is the day we will find out who has won The Ocean Race 2022-23 with
the result of the Redress hearing expected today.
That is to allow us to see whether 11th Hour Racing will be awarded points after
a collision with GUYOT environnement - Team Europe at the start of Leg 7.
Don't forget though that Team Holcim-PRB, the current leaders of the race, have
launched a protest, arguing that 11th Hour were partially at fault for the
crash.
We will bring you live updates throughout the day and you can watch a FREE live
stream later at 16:00 UK time / 17:00 CET when 11th Hour arrive at the finish
line.


WEDNESDAY JUNE 28


16:40

Team Holcim-PRB have filed a protest against 11th Hour Racing.
The protest from Team Holcim-PRB relates to the collision at the start of Leg 7
that ruled 11th Hour Racing and GUYOT environnement - Team Europe out of the
leg.
The protest hearing - in which Team Holcim-PRB might try to establish that 11th
Hour Racing were partially at fault for the crash - will take place before the
redresss hearing on Thursday and could have an impact on the redress hearing and
the outcome of it.



12:00

As we mentioned below, 11th Hour Racing Team are making their way to Italy,
despite having retired from the leg following their crash with Guyot
Environnment - Team Europe.
They are currently off the east coast of Menorca, so still some distance left to
go...


10:45

It's the morning after the night before, and there will likely be some sore
heads this morning as the crews acclimatise back to dry land following
yesterday's culmination to Leg 7.
But there is still plenty yet to be decided, specifically the overall winner of
the IMOCA race, with 11th Hour Racing - still making their way to Italy -
awaiting a redress hearing tomorrow...



TUESDAY JUNE 27


15:30

It is indeed Viva Mexico who take third place in the VO65 class.
That leaves just Austrian Ocean Racing powered by Team Genova and
Mirpuri/Trifork Racing Team looking to finish.


15:00

There's still a few VO65 boats out on the water, so the racing is not quite
done.
Viva Mexico look as though they are gong to finish in third place.


14:50

So, that's (almost) that then.
Team Malizia win Leg 7 but we wait to see who wins the Ocean Race. That will be
decided after the redress hearing later this week.
There's still a bit more to come with the In-Port Race on July 1.


14:37

And Holcim-PRB have made it over the line.
It was a rough final day for the team as they lost the lead and then endured a
slow finish.
They come third and will wait to see the result of 11th Hour Racing's redress
hearing on June 29.


14:22

Holcim-PRB are still not quite at the line. We have heard from their skipper
Benjamin Schwartz, who sounds disappointed with the way things have panned out.
"Biotherm and Malizia were maybe smarter than us. We couldn’t cover them at some
point and they managed to escape. After leading the leg for 12 days finishing in
the last position in the group is a bit of a disappointment.
"But we are happy to finish here in Genova and it was a great leg, we really
enjoyed it.”


13:57

Finally! Biotherm have crossed the line to ensure they will take second place on
Leg 7 behind Team Malizia.
Holcim-PRB will finish in third place.


13:23

Biotherm are picking up a bit of speed now. Still not a huge amount but they are
sailing faster than Holcim-PRB and it looks like they are going to secure
second.


13:08

These last few nautical miles are still proving slow going for Biotherm and
Holcim-PRB.
It's Biotherm who have the advantage but both boats are struggling for speed.


12:45

As Team JAJO celebrate their second-placed finish in the VO65 class, the racing
continues on the water.
It looks like it's going to be Biotherm taking second place in the IMOCA class
ahead of Holcim-PRB, although the speeds of both boats are down.


12:35

There's been a lot of movement over the last 24 hours. Here's how it all
unfolded as the boats approached Genova...

The Ocean Race: Race Report I 27/06


12:22

We are set for a close battle for second as there's not much at all between
Biotherm and Holcim-PRB.
There are four points up for grabs for second spot compared to three for third
place.


12:17

And they've done it.
Team Malizia have gone from third to first to win Leg 7 of The Ocean Race
2022-23. They finish the leg in 11 days, 19 hours, two minutes and 51 seconds.


12:13

Team Malizia have slowed a bit as they approach the finish but their lead isn't
in danger.
They have some supporters in boats who have come out to welcome them in.


12:08

Celebrations on board Team JAJO as they cross the finish line and take second
place in the leg in the VO65 class.


11:50

The crowd is building on the dock as Team JAJO approach.
Team Malizia are not far behind.


11:35

The first boat into Genova is likely to be Team JAJO, who are competing in the
VO65 class.
They are aiming for second place after WindWhisper arrived yesterday.


11:23

It looks like it's going to be Team Malizia leading the IMOCA fleet into Genova
ahead of Biotherm and Holcim-PRB.
What this means for the overall standings is still a bit of an unknown as
current leaders 11th Hour Racing are waiting on a redress hearing later this
week after they crashed at the start of the leg.
As it stands, 11th Hour Racing are two points ahead of Holcim-PRB.



11:16

The live stream is under way - hit play in the video at the top of this page to
watch or head to Eurosport's YouTube channel.
Not long now until the boats arrive in Genova for the last stop on this Ocean
Race.


10:55

The latest news is that the speeds have picked up and the leaders are coming in
faster.
We could be looking at the first arrivals in around 20-30 minutes.


10:25

They are getting closer. Just 14 nautical miles left for Team Malizia, who lead
the IMOCA fleet ahead of Biotherm and then Holcim-PRB in third.


09:30

The arrival times have been pushed back due to the conditions. The live stream
will now be starting at midday BST.
Team Malizia, who are leading the IMOCA fleet, have 20 nautical miles remaining.


08:50

There hasn't been too much movement this morning due to light winds.
But we are set for a very close finish as just three nautical miles separate the
three IMOCA boats.
The VO65 boats are competing for second place after WindWhisper came home
yesterday to claim the Sprint Cup.


08:10

It's arrivals day.
The IMOCA and VO65 boats are closing on Genova and are all expected into port
today. You can watch the arrivals live with Eurosport from around 11am BST.
There's been a change in the lead with the IMOCAs as Team Malizia are now ahead
of Holcim-PRB.
The latest report from The Ocean Race says: "A long night for our sailors and
teams. Extremely light conditions that persist this morning. ETAs are pushed
back beyond 1100 am local time now, with the boats within 30 miles (a distance
easily covered in a couple of hours) but barely moving."


MONDAY JUNE 26


22:00

Still as you were - Holcim-PRB, then Biotherm, then Team Malizia - but just 2.6
nautical miles separate the top two now. We're heading for a grandstand finish!
Remember: you can watch a free lives tream of the arrival in Genova on this very
page from 06:00 BST tomorrow.


17:00

It's still super tight in the IMOCA race to Genova as Holcim-PRB lead Biotherm
by 4.7 nautical miles. Team Malizia are firmly in the hunt too, 5.4nm off the
lead.


13:15

Here's today Daily Race Report.

11:45

Here's the moment that WindWhisper crossed the line in Genova.

17:35

Here's a recap of today's action with the Race Report.
Team Malizia's Nicolas Lunven summed up how close the IMOCA battle is.
"It's quite compact. We have Biotherm not far away, like two or three miles,
Holcim is 10 miles ahead of us," he said of the continuing three-way tussle.

coastline


16:15

The latest reports say that runaway V065 class leaders WindWhisper Racing Team
are expected to arrive in Genova tomorrow, with the remaining race boats coming
in the following day.
All the teams have faced challenging conditions since entering the
Mediterranean, with some opting to sail east of Majorca and others west.
Team Holcim-PRB headed off towards the Algerian coast before tacking back
towards Spain to reconverge ahead of their rivals in the IMOCA fleet.
Crew member Annemieke Bes said: “We were happy with the strategy in the end. We
were stressed as there was a huge lateral gap. Anyway, it was good to try to
catch the thermal winds a bit earlier.”
Light and variable winds are now expected between where the fleets currently
are, towards the south-west of France, and Genova. There's lots still to play
for!

Here are more updates from the boats!

12:30

Things are really ramping up now!



08:30

The racing is absolutely heating up at the moment and WindWhisper Racing Team
are already nearing Italy, with the others still along the Spanish coast.



FRIDAY JUNE 23


15:45

In the IMOCA fleet, which is a three boat race, it's so close that each one of
Team Holcim PRB, Biotherm and Team Malizia have held the lead on the tracker at
some point over the past 24 hours.
As of 2pm UK time, the spread from first to worst is under 10 miles and this
three-way match race looks set to continue to the finale in Genova.

"We just entered the Med and it's sure that it is still going to be a long
race," said Biotherm skipper Paul Meilhat.
"We are racing really close with Holcim-PRB and Team Malizia and it's been a
really good trip around the coast of France, Spain, Portugal and now into the
Mediterranean.
"Our feeling is we want to finish the race quickly because we want to win, but
at the same time, it is also good to have these extra moments as it's the last
leg of The Ocean Race.
"We are going to see some really tricky winds... from Alicante to Genova it
seems like all is possible. Maybe the last day will have very light winds so we
want to stay close to the others as I think it might all be decided right at the
end!"


15:30

All the VO65 race boats are in the Mediterranean sea spread from Europe to
Africa. WindWhisper Racing Team, have seen their lead shrink by over 50 miles in
the past 24 hours.
They're still ahead by a century in the VO65 Sprint, leading Mirpuri/Trifork
Racing Team and Team JAJO by over 100 miles.
But for the first time in days, the trailing boats are making significant gains.
"Basically we've been match racing Team JAJO all day," said Dave Swete from
Mirpuri/ Trifork Racing Team.
"They just sort of slam tacked on us, so they've let their intentions be known!
But it's also let the Mexican team catch us as well, so it's basically a three
boat race (behind WindWhisper)... It's WindWhisper's race to lose now and
meanwhile we have a good battle back here."


07:15

Good morning! We bring you the news that there have been some leaderboard
changes overnight...
Team Malizia have edged into the lead of the IMOCA fleet, as a compelling
three-way battle continues towards the Balearic Islands en route to final
destination Genova.
Meanwhile in the VO65s, WindWhisper Racing Team have a sizeable advantage over
the rest.
Here's the current lay of the land:
IMOCA
1. Team Malizia
2. Biotherm - 5 nautical miles distance to leader
3. Team Holcim-PRB - 6.4nm DTL
VO65
1. WindWhisper Racing Team
2. Mirpuri/Trifork Racing Team - 131.9nm DTL
3. Team JAJO - 135.6nm DTL
4. Viva Mexico - 137.0nm DTL
5. Austrian Ocean racing powered by Team Genova - 140.6nm DTL

17:50

Windy conditions are expected to ease off in the western Mediterranean,
providing a challenge to the fleets as they head for Genova.
Team Holcim-PRB are leading the IMOCA fleet approaching the Strait of Gibraltar,
but they are at risk of losing ground to Team Malizia who are further south and
could catch them around the outside.
"It's a good opportunity for us to catch up to the others," said Malizia's Will
Harris.
"There will be a light wind area and maybe a chance for us to play a card and
gain some miles if we find better wind. We'll see what we find."

In the V065 class, it’s looking good for WindWhisper, who have extended their
lead to 150 nautical miles over their rivals, with Team JAJO battling
Mirpuri-Trifork for second.
"It's been very painful," said JAJO's Jorden van Rooijen.
"On the way to Gibraltar, we've been battling Mirpuri Trifork all night. We had
them seven miles behind us and now they just got a little bit of pressure,
overtook us, a super-close battle, one boat length apart, and now they're just
in front of us...so we have to get them back!"


08:30

Regatta Director Phil Lawrence recently disclosed that the World Sailing
International Jury has tentatively set the hearing for 11th Hour Racing Team's
Request for Redress on June 29th at 10:00am. The hearing will take place in
person in Genova.
The World Sailing International Jury comprises six members.
Since the outcome of the 11th Hour Racing redress hearing may impact the entire
fleet, the International Jury is committed to ensuring a fair resolution for all
affected boats. Therefore, the aim is to provide the full IMOCA fleet with the
opportunity to attend the hearing, express their perspectives, and ask
questions.
In accordance with Racing Rules of Sailing 60.3(b), the International Jury will
simultaneously consider redress for Team Holcim-PRB, Team Malizia, Biotherm, and
GUYOT environnement - Team Europe. This decision stems from the collision that
occurred at the start of Leg 7. As a result of the incident, both 11th Hour
Racing Team and GUYOT environnement - Team Europe retired from the leg due to
damage. Subsequently, 11th Hour Racing Team submitted a Request for Redress.
While the GUYOT team is currently sailing to its home port in France, the 11th
Hour Racing Team has repaired its IMOCA and is heading towards Genova with the
intention to participate in the final In-Port race of this edition on July 1st.
In sailing, a Request for Redress is a fairly common occurrence, and the
procedures for a hearing are well-established. The relevant section in the
Racing Rules of Sailing is Rule 62.1, which states, in part, that a request for
redress or a protest committee's decision to consider redress should be based on
a claim or possibility that a boat's score or position in a race or series has
been significantly compromised, through no fault of its own, due to injury or
physical damage caused by a boat that was breaking a rule and either took an
appropriate penalty or was penalised.
Additionally, Rule 64.3 outlines decisions on redress. When the protest
committee determines that a boat is entitled to redress under Rule 62, it must
strive to make a fair arrangement for all affected boats, regardless of whether
they requested redress. This may involve adjusting the scoring or finishing
times of boats, abandoning the race, allowing the results to stand, or
implementing some other appropriate arrangement.


WEDNESDAY JUNE 21


19:00

We have a winner! The WindWhisper team were the first boat from either fleet to
reach the line of 37-degrees north latitude this morning, landing them the Vasco
da Gama Mirpuri Foundation Prize.
Skipper Daryl Wislang and his crew-mates will now head through the Strait of
Gibraltar and into the Mediterranean Sea as they zone in on Genova with a lead
of at least 90 miles over their nearest VO65-class rivals.
Team Holcim-PRB are still leading the IMOCA fleet, but Biotherm were only 10
miles back earlier and Team Malizia had closed the gap to 33 miles.

"Normally we have some good wind off the coast of Portugal, but now we don't
have wind... only about 8 knots," said Biotherm's Portuguese sailor Mariana
Lobato.
"Hopefully it comes soon so we can make it downwind, and fast, and have some
fun!"


11:30

Good news - the wind has finally picked up! Catch up on today's Race Report as
the fleet head down the coast of Portugal.



08:30

Team Malizia skipper Boris Herrmann has explained the broken mast issues for
Guyot Environnement - Team Europe and Team Holcim-PRB were simply down to "bad
luck" and dismissed any overall safety concerns in The Ocean Race.
He said: "A great fascination of our sport is of course the confrontation with
nature and the forces of nature, the storms that we experience along the route.
Fortunately, our sport is very safe these days.
"Nobody came to harm, there were no serious injuries. Unfortunately, there were
the two mast breaks, but you really have to consider them as isolated incidents.
They were individual components that failed and were incorrectly constructed.
"That can now be seen in retrospect. What happened there can be determined
exactly. It doesn't even have anything to do with the race or the conditions in
detail. It was really bad luck for the two teams.
"Apart from that, it's more of a positive surprise how reliably the five ships
mostly got around the world. For us in particular, I would underline that: Team
Malizia was consistently in the front in all legs and without any major
difficulties. We are very proud of that. And of all the participants, we sailed
the shortest cumulative time in this race."


TUESDAY JUNE 20


21:00

It has been a frustrating day for all concerned today thanks to light winds.
"It would be nice to be going faster," said Will Harris, whose Team Malizia
clawed a few miles back on Team Holcim-PRB and Biotherm.
"It's a long way to Genova. It's not a leg to be underestimated. I think
anything could happen right up to the finish. There will be lots of
opportunities to catch up.
"It's a lot more tactical in these conditions. You still have to sail the boat
as fast as possible and remember that everyone is dealing with the same
conditions. It's about how you overcome it."


09:45

It's still Holcim-PRB leading the way for the IMOCAs as they get out of the Bay
of Biscay.
Remember there are only three IMOCAs competing in the leg after 11th Hour Racing
Team and GUYOT environnement - Team Europe both retired following a crash.
The VO65 fleet has already passed already Cape Finisterre (the westernmost tip
of Spain) and are sailing along the coast of Portugal.


MONDAY JUNE 19


18:00

Holcim-PRB now have a fairly healthy lead of 26.25nm over Biotherm, wiith
Malizia 43.91nm back from the leaders.
WindWhisper Racing Team are 68.9nm clear of Miripuri/Trifork Racing Team.


14:30

Things are slow going at the moment on the water.
"It's looking very quiet, not so much wind... very slow," explained Nico Lunven
fromTeam Maliza.
Yoann Richomme added "We are in the middle of the Bay of Biscay, going west -
west!! - to get away from some light winds between France and Spain,
"Then we are going to try to go down south along the coast of Portugal. it will
be light this afternoon, then a little bit windier as we turn south to go down
but then Portugal looks very, very light.
"Right now we're slow. It's not looking good. Biotherm, is about 55 miles north
but we could lose quite a bit today I reckon. We have a bit of an advantage but
I think the next hours and days will be very tricky."


12:45

The respective fleets are heading out into the Bay of Biscay! Here is today's
race report detailing all the latest news as the Grand Finale continues to near.



09:30

Here's your Monday morning standings update as the VO65 fleet continue to lead

SUNDAY JUNE 18


19:45 - 11TH HOUR DOCK OUT

Great news for 11th Hour Racing Team, as their repaired boat is able to dock
out. Could they make it to Genova?

“We are very tight on time but we will do everything we can to get to Genova to
join the rest of the fleet for the Grand Finale of The Ocean Race," said skipper
Charlie Enright.
"We want to be there in time for the start of the In-Port Race on July 1, to
give us the opportunity to compete in, and win, the In-Port Race Series. It’s a
race-within-a-race, and the countdown is now on."


17:55 - DUTREUX REFLECTS ON RETIREMENT

Hear from the captain on what it means for GUYOT environnement Team Europe to
retire.



16:00 - HOLCIM RETAIN LEAD

Biotherm are 20,.27nm back from from Holcim-PRB, with Malizia 45.28 behind. That
could change if any team is able to locate some stronger winds, but they may
have to add miles to their journey to find it.
In the VO65, Team Wind Whisper are in control, 46.27nm of their nearest
challenger.

Team Wind Whisper is starting to pull away from the rest in the VO65s, some 22.6
nautical miles ahead of Mirpuri/Trifork Racing team.
Meawhile, it is a close battle between Team Holcim-PRB and Biotherm, with the
former 15.2 nautical miles clear and 1,747.3 nautical miles away from the finish
line.


SATURDAY JUNE 17


11TH HOUR RACING TEAM SITUATION RECAP

11th Hour Racing Team and their skipper Charlie Enright are attempting to repair
their boat with the aim of sailing to Genoa after retiring from Leg 7 and
submitting a request for redress.
Their boat was damaged when it was hit by GUYOT environnement - Team Europe
shortly after the start of the leg in The Hague on Thursday.
The Enright-skippered team were left with a hole in the stern of their boat
following the crash and were forced to head back to shore for repairs.
The team suspended racing in Leg 7 on Thursday, and on Friday retired from the
leg and submitted a request for redress, which gives the team a chance to secure
points in the overall race.
According to the Racing Rules of Sailing "a request for redress or a protest
committee’s decision to consider redress shall be based on a claim or
possibility that a boat’s score or place in a race or series has been or may be,
through no fault of her own, made significantly worse".
The 11th Hour Racing Team shore crew and technical team have been working
tirelessly to repair the boat since the crash. The goal is to sail to Genoa and
participate in the Grand Finale.
In a team statement, Enright said: “We are working around the clock to repair
the boat as quickly as possible, and our intent is to sail to Genoa to rejoin
the fleet and complete this lap around our blue planet.
"Everyone is obviously devastated - no one wants to finish a race like this -
but spirits are high within the team, and everyone is focused on finishing this
incredible race on a high note.”
11th Hour Racing Team had won the past three legs, and had a two-point lead in
the overall race over Team Holcim-PRB, who currently lead Leg 7 ahead of
Biotherm and Team Malizia in second and third, respectively.
The redress could see 11th Hour Racing Team awarded points by a race jury.


13:30

The five VO65s and three IMOCA boats still racing towards the Grand Finale in
Genova are battling light and challenging conditions as they attempt to
navitgate the English Channel and start the next section of the race, in more
open waters.
At 1000 UTC on Saturday, the VO65 fleet was packed tightly, roughly 50 miles
west of the leading IMOCA boat, Team Holcim-PRB.
Team JAJO is nominally leading, ahead of both Mirpuri-Trifork Racing Team and
WindWhisper, however with boat speeds below 4 knots, and the distance from first
to fifth a mere 15 miles, it will take only a moment's advantage for one team or
another to upset the current order.
"It's really light, it's the first big transition of the race," explained Max
Deckers on Team JAJO. "We're expecting wind from the west at some point, but
until then it's just about using anything we get - looking for wind. That's the
main thing."
The IMOCA teams are in the same situation. They've set up slightly further east
and south, captain Benjamin Schwartz and his crew on Team Holcim-PRB pulling
away from Biotherm (15 miles) and Team Malizia (25 miles).
"We have to find a way through these light winds in the English Channel to the
Bay of Biscay," said Malizia's Will Harris.
Marie Riou on Biotherm said: "We are waiting for some good wind," as they looked
to catch up.
However the forecast doesn't offer much hope. Light to moderate
south-southwesterlies are anticipated, but this would also mean upwind sailing
through the Bay of Biscay, which is not the quickest vector of travel.






13:00

Here's the Daily Report Saturday, focusing on the repairs needed for the race.

drama


10:15

Let's hear from Race Chairman Richard Brisius as to what happens now.

'Typically they would give a compensation' - Race chairman Brisius explains jury
protocol


08:00

Here's where we stand in what is happening now and what could happen.
 * Three boats are racing towards Genova now.
 * Guyot environnement - Team Europe are out of the leg.
 * 11th Hour Racing Team have been working through Thursday night and will
   provide an update on Friday morning as to the condition of their boat and
   whether they can still compete in the leg.
 * We are waiting to see what a jury may decide with regards to the future of
   the race. It's possible that 11th Hour Racing Team might be awarded "average"
   points, which would give them the title as the race leaders.


07:00

Let's hear from skipper Charlie Enright speaking on the dock who said, “We did
our best to avoid it, and I don’t want to speculate on what was going on on
their side of the fence. We protested them as a result, and the Umpires dealt
with the Racing Rules of Sailing on the water, and Guyot were black flagged.
“All of that aside, those are the small details. The most important thing is
that everyone on their boat and our boat are ok. Where we go from here is
uncertain at this stage. It’s life, it’s racing. There is nothing we would have
done differently, and accidents happen.
“This race has a way of testing people in different ways - physically and
mentally, and this is a test for our team. There is no team I would rather be
on, that I would rather have with me. If anyone can figure this out, it is us, I
genuinely believe that, we will just have to see what that process looks like as
we get more information,” Enright concluded.


THURSDAY JUNE 15


23:00

According to the latest report from The Ocean Race, 11th Hour Racing Team are
"operating on two tracks at the moment".
They are "assessing repair options that could see them resume on the water
toward Genova in the coming days, while at the same time, working within the
Racing Rules of Sailing and the rules of The Ocean Race to consider how redress
may apply (the International Jury may award points to a team unable to race
competitively following an incident caused by another competitor)."
It is not known when the jury will make a decision on redress or what happens
next.


21:20

As the three remaining boats head towards the English Channel, here are the
highlights from today's action.

20:25

Charlie Enright, skipper of 11th Hour Racing Team, has been speaking to us in
the harbour.
"We are really glad everybody is OK physically, that’s the most important
thing," he said.
"The situation is so unique I am not sure what the next steps are. Not enough
time has elapsed to get a good handle on what happens next.
"We are on the precipice of something great and this isn’t going to be the
reason we don’t finish the job. Whatever it takes we will figure it out."
We have also heard from race director Phil Lawrence who says there will be a
jury hearing.

GUYOT environnement - Team Europe have announced they will retire from Leg 7
following their crash with 11th Hour Racing Team.
Skipper Benjamin Dutreux has also said they will do all they can to help 11th
Hour Racing Team.
"I'm very sorry about this," Dutreux said. "I really hope they will get back and
win this race... We will try to help them all we can.
"Their boat appeared in front of me and it was too late. It was impossible then
to avoid contact (after I saw them). I take all responsibility. It's our fault
for sure."


18:30

Well that was dramatic.
We will continue to bring you live updates as we get further news on the status
of the two boats in the harbour and what comes next in this leg.


18:20

Team Holcim-PRB, who are second in the standings behind 11th Hour Racing Team,

Team Holcim-PRB are just two points behind 11th Hour Racing Team.


18:12

Here's a look at the damage on the GUYOT environnement - Team Europe boat.



18:03

As 11th Hour Racing Team dock for repairs, the remaining three boats on the
water - Team Holcim-PRB, Team Malizia and Biotherm - are heading out for
departure.


17:50

What is this going to mean for the race? We are waiting to hear from race
officer Bill O'Hara.
Both 11th Hour Racing Team and GUYOT environnement - Team Europe are on their
way to the shore.


17:40

The damage is significant on the side of the 11th Hour Racing Team boat and they
are making their way back to shore for repairs.
They are leading the standings but they need to complete the leg to have a
chance of winning the race.

crash


17:33

CRASH!
Oh no. A potentially huge moment in the race as GUYOT environnement - Team
Europe crash into the side of 11th Hour Racing Team.
The incident has left a big hole in the stern of the 11th Hour Racing Team boat
and the crew look absolutely shocked.
Are they going to be able to continue this leg? There is a lot of emotion on the
boat at the moment.



17:23

It's Team Holcim PRB leading the way at the moment ahead of 11th Hour Racing
Team.


17:15

And we are off. No issues at the start as the IMOCA fleet look to build up
speed.

The five-minute countdown has started. Conditions are looking pretty good at the
moment.
"Keep it as simple as possible," is the message from GUYOT environnement - Team
Europe's Annie Lush.


17:05

Team Malizia's Boris Hermann has given his view on the challenges ahead in Leg
7.
"The hardest part will be to deal with the variety and intensity over a long
time. Tomorrow in the English Channel can be quite crucial and an important
moment of the race."


16:55

We've caught up with 11th Hour Racing Team skipper Charlie Enright who is
expecting a "long and difficult leg".
"It’s going to be tough but we are ready to go.
"A big focus of the last 48 hours has been making sure everybody is physically
and mentally prepared for what we know is going to be a long and difficult leg."


16:45

It's under 30 minutes until Leg 7 gets started and the live coverage on

commentary, assessing Team JAJO's dominant display so far.



12:35

Team JAJO are heading towards the Leeward Gate now, followed closely by
WindWhisper Racing and Austrian Ocean Racing powered by Team Genova. It's cat
and mouse at the front as each team seeks to pick the right line...


12:30

Team JAJO have stormed into a lead of over 300 metres after just one lap of the
course - stunning stuff from the local favourites!



12:20

Oof what a duel this is between Dutch boat Team JAJO - on home waters - and
overall leaders WindWhisper Racing Team. Barely a boat length between them as
they jostle for the lead!



12:15

Four abreast in these early stages as WindWhisper Racing have three other boats
in something of a holding pen.
Here's the running order for now:
1. Team JAJO

17:40

That's all from us for today, don't forget the next leg of The Ocean Race from
The Hague to Genova starts tomorrow so join us then for all the latest coverage.


17:30

Here's how the standings look after the race.



17:25

It's WindWhisper who come home in second place ahead of Mirpuri/Trifork Racing
Team, Austrian Ocean Racing and Viva Mexico.


17:19

Team JAJO win!
There are celebrations on board as the team cross the line in first place.



17:17

It doesn't look like Team JAJO are going to be caught, the finish is in sight
for them.


17:10

The commentary team reckon Team JAJO have this wrapped up as they reach the
Windward Gate with a healthy advantage.
It certainly looks like it will take something remarkable to catch them.


17:04

Very interesting tactics in this race.
Team JAJO still lead after the Leeward Gate and WindWhisper Racing Team are
still sailing on the other side of the course to try and make up ground.
Presumably the thinking is that if they just follow Team JAJO they won't catch
them, but if they try something different they might.


16:59

This is all going very well for Team JAJO so far. It looked like they might have
slowed a bit at the Windward Gate but they still lead by a decent margin from
WindWhisper Racing Team as they head back.
Here's how they took the initiative at the start...

Team JAJO make 'dream start' to In-Port race in The Hague


16:52

Leaders Team JAJO are the first to the Windward Gate, they are quite late on the
hoist but still hold a healthy lead.
There's a split as Team JAJO go right and WindWhisper Racing Team turn left at
the gate.


16:49

Viva Mexico asked for a protest for the start from Team JAJO but the umpires on
the course ruled no foul.
Team JAJO are leading ahead of WindWhisper Racing Team and Viva Mexico.


16:43

Team JAJO are flying after their brilliant start. They have pulled well clear of
the rest of the boats, who have plenty of water to make up.


16:40

And we are off.
Team JAJO have made a very good start, crossing ahead of the fleet and getting
away in perfect time.



16:35

The five-minute countdown has started.
There are a lot of spectators out on the water as the VO65 boats get into
position.
They will be doing two laps of the windward-leeward course.


16:23

Wondering about the conditions for today's race? Wonder no more.
We reportedly look set for 18-20 knots of wind under bright sunny skies.


16:10

The teams are getting into position for the start.



15:55

Kate Jordan from Mirpuri/Trifork Racing Team will be joining our commentary team
for the In-Port race and is looking forward to getting a different view of
things.
“I’m really looking forward to seeing the racing from the outside.
“Normally you’re kind of heads down just working, so it's gonna be really cool
to see my crew work together, hopefully take the win and, yeah, see how all the
boats operate together.
“We're really gonna see some opportunities for the boats to change positions
during the racing, so I'm really looking forward to it.”


15:30

With just over an hour to go until the VO65 In-Port race gets started, here's a
reminder of the standings.



15:00

The countdown to the VO65 In-Port Sprint has begun with just 1h30 to go!


14:30

It's been a memorable few days in The Hague so far...and there's still more to
come!

A quick weather update as we tick past four hours to go until the VO65 action
begins in The Hague...
Conditions are likely to be similar to yesterday, with north-east winds between
15-17 knots.
In other words, ideal for some intense racing!


11:45

The skippers are appearing in front of the press today, and here's Charlie
Enright from current IMOCA leaders 11th Hour Racing Team on his long-held
ambition of lifting the trophy.
"I’ve been picturing myself lifting this trophy since I was like 10 years old,"
he said. "We’ve sailed a lot of miles, but there’s 2,000 very, very, very
complex miles to go."



10:45

There was drama yesterday during the IMOCA In-Port race, as Francesca Clapcich
of 11th Hour Racing Team was thrown overboard while trying to clear a sail.
Read the full story here.


09:30

It's VO65 race day! After the IMOCAs had their turn on Tuesday - with Guyot

17:23

Here's how a fantastic performance from Team Europe got started:

Guyot Team Europe take an early lead in the In-Port Race


17:16

Well that was unexpected! Guyot Environnement - Team Europe started the day cut
adrift in last place in the In-Port standings, having finished last in the last
two races in Newport and Aarhus.
"It was very nice, I'm happy," says delighted skipper Benjamin Dutreux.


17:12

Guyot Environnement Team Europe win! They cross the finish line in first place,
but there appears to be some confusion about whether the race is over after two
laps - both from the boat and in the commentary box!
11th Hour cross the line in second, with Malizia coming third. Biotherm arrive
fourth, with Holcim-PRB in a very disappointing last place.


17:09

Guyot Environnement Team Europe can taste the victory here - they round Mark 3
with a healthy lead still intact, despite 11th Hour's best efforts to catch
them.


17:05

11th Hour Racing Team are trying to hunt down Guyot Environnement Team Europe,
but still have a gap of 630m or so to make up.
Behind them, Malizia and Biotherm are in a fierce battle for third but
Holcim-PRB have been dropped out the back.


17:01

Team Malizia have got themselves up into second and are pushing hard to catch
