Groupama Wins Dramatic In-Port Race at Lisbon

Nearing the end of a race that will span a total of eight months, French skipper Franck Cammas’ team solidify their lead with a victory at Lisbon. Close behind was overall third-place boat PUMA, and overall second-place boat Telefonica had a rough race that put them in last.

Volvo Ocean Race: In-Port Race (Lisbon)

Current overall leader Groupama took first place, while PUMA battled back for a well-deserved second place finish. CAMPER (with Emirates Team New Zealand) snagged the last podium spot, while overall second-place boat Telefonica came in last. Telefonica’s poor finish resulted partially from a penalty on PUMA immediately after the start and partially from a snapped masthead halyard.
