Yacht Racing Life website editor Justin Chisholm is joined once again by ocean racing expert Conrad Colman to mull over the latest goings on in the Vendee Globe solo around-the-world yacht race.
Amongst the topics discussed are:

– Should Alex Thomson have packed a spare rudder?
– The needle match going on between Charlie Dalin and Thomas Ruyant for second place
