With three Volvo Ocean race entries competing in the 2011 Rolex Fastnet Race, the Volvo Ocean Race has posted a series of videos relating to the three entries - Groupama, Team Sanya and Abu Dhabi Ocean Racing. This is the first time that VOR70's have lined up against each other.

Weather expert Gonzalo Infante has been crunching the data in the build-up to the race and Abu Dhabi Ocean Racing, Groupama Sailing Team and Team Sanya could be close to the record time of one day 20 hours and 18 minutes if the forecast doesn't change.
