Jérémie Béyou arrived in Les Sables d'Olonne on Sunday afteroon. The Maître CoQ skipper will answer questions from the public at the Atlantes Hall at 4.30PM.
Sam Davies and Savéol are also expected to arrive on Sunday in the early afternoon.
"Thanks for being here. It’s not an easy for me to deal with this moment because usually, when there are that many people gathered to welcome you, it means you’ve won the race and you are getting ready to celebrate with a bottle of champagne. And this is definitely not the case here. But hey, that’s life. And this is how great people can be in Les Sables d’Olonne, in all Vendée, and even farther, as I’ve been told there are people coming from far away here today. It’s really helping me accept this difficult situation. Because hitting an Unidentified Floating Object is just such bad luck it’s hard to take. So thank you, all of you, for being here today", the Maître CoQ skipper said.
