Windy still for those to the east

The cold front with the second set of gales passed over the leaders on Thursday night. Those chasing after them are behind this cold front in a temporary lull this morning, which will soon come to an end with the arrival of the next system.
This system passed over Pindar and Roxy on Thursday night and arrived over Generali and Safran this morning.
For those to the west, the conditions are slightly easier than on previous days, as the lows are moving more slowly  and are less active. There is thus a calm period beginning with the rear of the fleet. However, they will have to remain cautious, as such calms do not last long in this region.
