The Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup was launched in 1980 by the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda, and welcomed Rolex as a Title Sponsor five years later. In 2025 the prestigious club will pay tribute to its founder, His Late Highness Aga Khan IV, who passed away in February, but whose forward-looking vision led to the creation of an institution that has become an international benchmark in yachting.
An International Jury has awarded redress to Team Holcim-PRB after their Leg 1 collision with Allagrande Mapei Racing in Kiel Germany. Both teams retired from the opening stage, but Holcim-PRB will now earn Leg 1 points based on their average performance across Legs 2–5.
No further penalties were issued, and both crews say they’re eager to put the incident behind them and focus on the race ahead.
The seven IMOCA teams left the ancient port city to begin the 650-nautical-mile leg 3the Mediterranean to Nice France.

The conditions on leg 3 are expected to be complex, with a low-pressure system moving into the western Mediterranean that could produce anything from strong upwind battles to fast downwind runs.
