Shame this was French biased
It’s exciting, but I still prefer the Golden Globe Race . Much more challenging .
For me the golden globe is much tougher and more of a challenge. But I really enjoy the coverage of the Vendée. I followed Pip Hare's vlogs last time and will do so again.
Good luck to all the competitions though, and stay safe.
