I Would like to think they phoned to check before starting the race. And just to the wrong marina! Somehow.

Red flag will be needles if they don't go across and it will count as a completed leg.

Or he's got sponsorship from Red Bull now too. Looks like my Mum would have seen the underside of their hull as they went over her place in Ryde.

Is the leg being curtailed at the Needles?

Forecast cross channel doesn't look too bright.

Grey Ghost has stopped there for the past 15 mins.

Do we know if Cinzano arrived first and is now in Poole?

I did post earlier to say the red flag would be needles if they don't go across. That was from the ood this morning. So it is a leg and a decision wll be made whether to send them tomorrow.

Fuel was the reason they went over the start late and probably why then headed back to London and then changed their minds and went again.

They may be last in the race at the moment but they are leading with twice as many starts as the others!
