Route du Rhum

[BlueBell]

Is there any real-time, or near-real-time coverage of this?
I went to all the links provided and, although looking at close to a dozen different options on each link, couldn't find much.
Thanks.

Even highlights would be good.

Thomson appears to be leading IMOCA class, but Beyou's tracker reporting he's stopped. Thomson averaging a knot faster than the rest of IMOCA class over past 3 hours.

Banque Pop is looking for a pitstop due to Energy issue :

Even highlights would be good.

You can follow them in the Android/iphone app. I can also see them in the official Marin Trafic app. Filtered away cargo and tanker ships

Thank you.

Amazed that just now The Boss is leading the IMOCAS! And Gitana 17 is catching Macif-Mr. Josse is getting the hang of it. Gitana should be faster than Macif-hope Sebastien can prove it! Exciting race so far...
Sorry about Banque Pop-hope they get it sorted fast.......
UPDATE: Banque Pop is 73 miles behind Gabart and moving at about 12 knots...

Banque Pop-hope they get it sorted fast

Stop at Roscoff for repairing a said "minor" technical problem about on board energy :

The new cartography : Gitana now very close to Macif, Banque Pop seems already back in the race (at 24,5 knots during the last 30 mn), Hugo Boss (at 273°) is taking alone an incredibly different option full west than all others (at about 245° to 250° ) !!!!

Only 3m separate Macif and Gitana! Imagine: a 100' foiler match race-I never thought I'd see this day.
UPDATE: only.3 of a mile now separate the boats-Gitana doing 17 knots and Macif 10.
Someone knocking on the door: Banque Pop up to 26 knots but a long ways back 60 miles.

Replay of the start on Youtube:

One, zero 8, 18--Macif passes Gitana due to a slow headsail set by Sebastien...

 

[Dolfiman]

The new carto, Gitana now ahead !, Idec also is back at 8 NM of Macif (Francis Joyon, at 62, hats off !) , Sodebo not far itself, and Banque Pop is currently the faster behind, he recovers 20 NM (now at 53 instead of 73 just 2 hours ago).
In Imoca, have you seen the West-North West option of Hugo Boss, absolutely alone on this route / all other Imoca contenders.
