Estelle Denis, the big return to the L’Equipe Channel!

Estelle Denis wanted something else, new horizons. In the summer of 2021, after four years at the Chaîne L'Equipe, the sports journalist took a 90-degree turn to join RMC, even if it meant saying goodbye – or almost – to the world of sport to devote herself to current affairs generalist. No regrets.

And the success was there since the audiences of Estelle Midi, the daily newspaper that she hosts during the week, only increased for a long time before facing competition from Pascal Praud on Europe 1. The former companion by Raymond Domenech likes RMC and a departure does not seem on the agenda.

Estelle Denis, for the Virtual Regatta,

However, Estelle Denis appeared on the L'Equipe channel on Thursday. The adopted Breton was in fact the guest of France Pierron in L'Equipe de choc. And if she whispered that she missed the L'Equipe channel “a little, a little”the journalist was on set to discuss her all-consuming passion for Virtual Regatta, the online sailing racing simulation game.

And if the game enjoyed incredible success during the Vendée Globe, with nearly 700,000 players, Estelle Denis is a real fan with already no less than 31 races under her belt. And well helped by the pack offered by the organizers, Marc Thiercelin's companion shines since she is around the 17,000^e place. But by his own admission, the game is very time-consuming. To the point of playing during ad breaks in the middle of a show or during dinners.
