After 93 days of racing on the Vendée Globe there is a head to head, France v Switzerland match race for 17th place. Racing in near identical Finot Conq IMOCA Stéphane Le Diraison and Alan Roura have been duelling within two miles of each other with just 500 miles to the finish line in Les Sables d’Olonne. The duo have past history together, this tussle reprising the end of the 2018 Route du Rhum transatlantic when the young Swiss skipper got the better of his French rival.
