With the arrival of the last two skippers of the 2020/2021 Vendée Globe shortly, the race is drawing to a close. This 9 e edition was magical and above all inattendue?! While it should have been the fastest - thanks in particular to the participation of 8 latest generation foilers - the winner will have extended the race time by 6 days compared to the 2016 edition. This was due to the capricious weather conditions, which gave the 33 skippers a hard time engagés?!
A start and finish in a sanitary context marked by the Covid crisis, a round the world race transformed into a contact regatta - never before in the history of the race - a shipwreck and a night of doubt and fear, a mess of damage - yet the lowest rate of retirements - revelations - Jean Le Cam, the hero of the race, Pip Hare, the sunshine of this Vendée Globe or Louis Burton, with his head burnt and go-ahead.
"Un Monde d'émotions - Le Vendée Globe 2020-2021" retraces the race of the 33 sailors since the start in Les Sables-d'Olonne on 8th November 2020. Pictures on board, testimonials, race images... relive this memorable edition in this 52-minute film directed by Christophe Duchiron, produced by SAEM Vendée - Laura Le Goff and Nefertiti Production - Hervé Borde.
