Its going to take a few days to understand who has found some speed.
Alex Thompson is listed as the favourite but its good to see so many British skippers.
We should have been in the start village as we have been for the last four editions but COVID put a stop to our trip.
I know its wrong but what I find fascinating about ocean racing is the way 'luck' plays such a part, gear breakage, hitting something, lack of sleep, storms and all the other things that the skipper has to deal with in addition to sailing the boat.
