the fleet is splitting early! I like Coville's line between the extremes but Frank Cammas sure is trucking at 22.5knts along the French shoreline this morning. Coville playing the middle on Sodebo making 17.8knots. Then you Gavignet on Oman taking a wild flier to the right I suppose trying to get a bite on the edge of that northern low pressure system crossing the Atlantic.

If Coville manages to time it right, he may be able to skirt through two highs in a narrow corridor of pressure.

Joyon in 3rd appears to be playing it between Coville and Cammas but I think he might have to gybe back closer to the coast on Cammas' stern to avoid that high pressure but he's not out of options by any means yet.
