The 2023 edition of this Défi Azimut - Lorient Agglomération heralds a turning point for the multi-format event created by Jean-Marie Corteville back in 2011. Playing host to 34 IMOCAs in Lorient La Base, Brittany, in what is this year’s biggest line-up for the fleet, the Défi Azimut has shown that it has the stature of a major race meet. With the expert teams really keen to get involved, the fleet was able to cope admirably with the autumnal weather and compete in the two main events to crown a very fine champion. Charal, skippered by Jérémie Beyou and Franck Cammas, was the stand-out performer in this thirteenth edition thanks to her dazzling speed and her amazing control in flight mode. The incredibly high standard of the competition ensured that everyone brought their A game, as demonstrated in today’s speed runs contested at supersonic speeds and won by Paprec Arkéa skippered by Yoann Richomme and Yann Eliès. The low-down on a breathtaking edition!
