The classic solo race
We preview this weekend's Artemis Transat
A busy 24 hours! Down in Plymouth the Artemis Transat is due to set sail on Sunday. See our form guide. A new ice waypoint has been added to the course. On video 2004 winner Michel Desjoyeaux gives his impression of the race. BMW Oracle Racing has had another win in the New York Supreme Court. Match Race Germany has kicked off. We speak to Puma skipper Ken Read about his newly announced Volvo Ocean Race crew. Quantum Racing's new TP52 is ready for action. Despite apparently winning both races yesterday Ben Ainslie was DSQ in one race at the Finn Europeans. See the preview to this weekend's Wilson Trophy and the report from last weekend's SB3 racing. There's a new venue and a new boat for the iShares Cup.
