Charlie Dalin on MACIF Santé Prévoyance is back in the lead of the Vendée Globe, having traded the top spot with Yoann Richomme on Paprec Arkéa and Sébastien Simon on Groupe Dubreuil over the past 48 hours.

Dalin admitted he had a sail issue to repair, which slowed him a bit, but he's now back up to 100% and flying.

We bring you updates from Giancarlo Pedote, Eric Bellion and Oliver Heer, as well as the latest tracker, leaderboard and PredictWind routing options for Charlie Dalin and Sébastien Simon.

We conclude with a message from Sam Davies for Pip Hare, and an update from Pip as she sails with her jury rig towards Melbourne, Australia.
