The See Saw Battle Continues
The tension mounts as racing remains painfully close
Nobody can break free on final push towards a Sunday finish
Tension, exhaustion, and extreme emotional swings through elation and despair.
That's likely to be the mood on board Team Holcim-PRB and Team Malizia all the way to the finish now.
Despite racing hard for over 33 days and over 14,000 miles sailed over ground, neither Boris Herrmann's Malizia, nor Kevin Escoffier's Holcim-PRB... -

Holcim-PRB's Lead Dissolving At Rapid Pace
There has been more of the same in The Ocean Race on Friday - but in a good way. All four teams are clicking down the miles, racing to the east in fast reaching conditions.
