IMOCA, Class 40, Multi 50, Ultime - Route du Rhum - St.Malo FRA - The Swiss

Switzerland will start with three IMOCAs, and Simon Koster SUI and his 'Banque du Léman' are among the favorites for the Class 40. Yesterday, Alex Thompson GBR paid a prominent visit to Alan Roura SUI, who took over the former 'Hugo Boss' from Thompson, and newcomer Oliver Heer SUI, who worked for Thompson as a boat captain for many years. Justine Mettraux SUI also welcomed the race committee's decision to postpone.
