– The choice of “Jujus” is anything but a poker move
Justine Mettraux and Julien Villion are heading separately towards Martinique. A bold or wise choice for the TeamWork.net duo? Verdict at the end of the week.

Julien Villion and Justine Mettraux are constantly adjusting the settings of their monohull.
GUILLAUME GATEFAIT
A pack that rushes into a powerful wind and across a whitened sea. These are approximately the last images of the Imoca, captured a week ago off the coast of Le Havre. Since then, the 40 crews have tackled the route. Playing with cargo ships and currents in the Channel. Playing with the gales in the Bay of Biscay. Until the perhaps decisive crossroads of this double-handed Transatlantic which takes the competitors to the sun of Martinique. Shortly following passing Cape Finisterre, the northwest tip of the Iberian Peninsula, a large anticyclonic bubble blocked the path of a still grouped fleet. An obstacle for pessimists. An opportunity for those who don’t want to just follow the herd.
