Quotes:
Jean Luc Nelias ""We took this challenge on with the aim of sharing two things: obviously the race itself, which is a long way from over and also to enjoy the Adventure side of it, with a capital A ! You get that from discovering new places or seeing what surprises nature has in store for us but you can also enjoy some extraordinary meetings and that’s certainly been the case this time,"
Michelle Paret ""Here the wind is heavy and unwieldy. It manages to make you forget that you have four layers of fleeces on when you go out on deck. The cold forms part of our daily life, pain and fear too sometimes, but complaining about it doesn't even cross your mind, not for a second, that's the magic of this place."
