The second square of the Mapfre allows you to keep the lead also in the General of the In Port Series, which will serve to unpack in the general stages

Bouwe Bekking's "Team Brunel" won a convicted victory at Gurney's Resorts In Port Race Newport by winning the exit and gradually stretching the advantage until it certifies its victory.

The second post of the "Mapfre" allowed the leader of the In Port Race Series to further expand his advantage in the general. The local hero Charlie Enright took his "11th Hour Racing" to a good third place on the podium, indulging the local hobby that came out despite the low temperatures and rain.

David Witt's "SHK / Scallywag" ended in fourth place, ahead of the Dongfeng Race Team, which carried out a late return but could not exceed those of Hong Kong before the finish line. Meanwhile, the team "AkzoNobel" was able to overcome the "Turn the Tide on Plastic" on the first round of the tour to get sixth place.

Stage 9 of the Volvo Ocean Race will begin at 14: 00 local time on Sunday afternoon... a quick start with winds close to 20 knots is expected... Stage 9 is a 3300 nautical transatlantic crossing to Cardiff (Wales), and the last double-score stage of the current race edition.
