The wind arrived in the Vendée Globe, along the Portuguese coast, and turned the rankings upside down. During the night from Tuesday to Wednesday, the third since leaving Sables-d'Olonne on Sunday, Yoann Richomme (Paprec Arkéa) took the lead of the race, thanks to a Western adjustment, just ahead of Charlie Dalin (Macif Santé Prévoyance), second, 5.91 miles from the leader.
