Due to a Forced stopover in Ushuaia, the defending champion, YANNICK BESTAVEN, announced his withdrawalfrom the current 2024 Vendee Globe

After announcing a major breakdown to the steering system of the IMOCA Maître CoQ V, on Friday 27 December, damage which is impossible to repair at sea, Yannick Bestaven, in consultation with his technical team, has taken the decision to stopover in Ushuaïa to repair the various breakdowns suffered in recent days.

As this work cannot be carried out alone, Yannick will be joined on Monday by part of his technical team in Argentina. Such an intervention means the withdrawal of Yannick Bestaven and Maître CoQ V from this 10th edition of the Vendée Globe.

While sailing in around thirty knots, in rough seas (5 meters of waves), towards Cape Horn, Yannick Bestaven contacted his technical team on land on Friday December 27 at 9 p.m. UTC (10 p.m. French time) to warn them of a major breakdown to the steering system for the Maître CoQ V monohull.
