And for good reason: the skipper of Macif Santé Prévoyance has officially traveled halfway through this Vendée Globe.

Always in the lead

Now in the waters of the Pacific, Charlie still occupies the leading position ahead of Sébastien Simon who is holding on to his second place. Yoann Richomme continues his hunt.

Charlie Dalin, however, is still lagging behind the record holder of the event Armel Lecleac'h. In 2016, the latter had covered 730 kilometers more at this stage of the race.
