In Class 40, which is the biggest and the most international class with ten different nations represented in the 26 boat fleet, in some quarters hopes are high that one of the teams from outwith France will make it on to the podium, or perhaps even win. The level is almost certainly higher than the last time when 16 boats started and seven retired. Won by Yannick Bestaven and Eric Drouglazet, the British/American duo Hannah Jenner and Jesse Naimark finished third on 40 Degrees. Jenner is back, this time racing the same boat but as US backed 11th Hour along with New Yorker Rob Windsor.
