Fastnet record - MOD70 PowerPlay is now the fastest
The northerly wind was cold as it was powerful (up to 50 knots apparent), allowing the MOD70 to reduce the time set by Maxi Edmond de Rothschild during the 2019 Fastnet Race by almost 3 hours. Remember though that the organizers of this famous race, whose start is scheduled for August 8th this year, have announced a new finish line, in Cherbourg, France. An alternative race, faithful to the original Cowes-Plymouth route, called The Lonely Rock Race, is scheduled to take place early July.
