As from this morning UTC, the fleet will be passing the line of longitude of Cape Leeuwin at the Southwest point of Australia, the second of the three Capes to be rounded on a round-the-world trip. From there on, roughly 1'500nm are left to the port of call Melbourne that will probably be reached on Xmas morning. In the neck and neck race on top of the fleet, 'Mapfre' with Xavi Fernandez ESP extended her lead on 'Dongfeng' (Charles Caudrelier FRA) slightly on 12nm. Victory of leg 3 will go to either one, as 'Vestas' with Charlie Enright USA on 3rd is now already 116nm behind.
