Quotes:

Alex Thomson "Our strategy though is one of conservatism, so we are happy to be a little underpowered at times."

Javier Sanso "We want to get out of this area and head north when possible. We have spent more time than the other boats in the Furious Fifties, the low latitudes, twice as much as the leaders, so we are a little bit fed up of being cold and wet all the time."
