At the 40th day of the Vendée Globe race, Charlie Dalin continues to lead, with Yoann Richomme and Sébastien Simon closely trailing behind. As they near the remote Point Nemo, the trio has surpassed the record pace set by Armel Le Cléac’h in 2016-2017. Dalin has reported optimal performance after recent repairs, navigating almost 600 nautical miles in 24 hours. The next significant checkpoint is Cape Horn, crucial for comparisons with previous records.
