The way I remember is that Club Med was leading the race for most of the way and team Adventure pushing it into major damage in the south atlantic requiring a repair stop over in Cape town. I think they continued later but their race was now basically over. In the end both US boats were pushed too hard and had to go into land for repairs or retire from the race. Innovation Explorer and Club Med coached their boats around the world without stop overs but with some on the water repairs and reinforcements. There was also a Polish entry (Enza ?) but they never entered the fray in a serious manner.

You can now all google to see if what I remember was correct.
