Vendée Globe Monday 13th January Update - Dalin set for Tuesday morning finish

by Mark Jardine 13 Jan 09:04 GMT 13 January 2025

Charlie Dalin on MACIF Santé Prévoyance has just 200 nautical miles to the finish in Les Sables d'Olonne, and is set to take his final tack later today off Lorient, where his IMOCA yacht was constructed.

Eric Bellion has become the sixth skipper to withdraw from the race after his J2 pin failed again, and we hear from Jusine Mettraux, who has had engine issues, and Conrad Colman who runs us through some sail changes as he makes his way up the South Atlantic.

We then discuss the latest tracker, leaderboard and PredictWind routing options for Sam Goodchild and Charlie Dalin.

We conclude with Andi Robertson chatting with both Seb Simon and Boris Herrmann.
