Experience live the big start of the Vendée Globe, nicknamed the Everest of the seas. From Les Sables-d’Olonne, for two hours, we offer you the start of the race live with the two Genevans Justine Mettraux and Alan Roura in the running.
It is the largest offshore sailing race, organized once every four years. The tenth Vendée Globe starts this Sunday from Les Sables-d’Olonne. For the first time in its history, Switzerland is the second nation represented, behind France. Three Swiss sailors will be at the start.
Better still, Geneva is represented by two competitors. Alan Roura will start his third Vendée. In 2016, he was the youngest participant in the history of the event. For her part, Justine Mettraux is setting off for the first time in the solo, non-stop round-the-world race. The Versoisienne could create a surprise, having achieved excellent results this season.
To make you experience this historic moment, Léman Bleu is shaking up its programs this Sunday, November 10. For two hours, we offer you the start of the race live, with our journalists present in Les Sables-d’Olonne and our consultants.
