6 Teams are now entering their third night in European skies. Imagine a 1.2 m² basket where pilots work and sleep, develop strategies and ask for clearances, monitor the weather and discuss forecasts with their ground support teams. Bravo à tous les équipages. Well done – so far.
The teams GBR 2 (Janet Folkes / Ann-Ruth Rich), USA 2 (Mark Sullivan / Cheryl White), SUI 1 (Kurt Frieden / Pascal Witpraechtiger), FRA 1 (Sebastien Rolland / Vincent Leys), USA 3 (Andy Cayton / Samuel Canders) and SUI 2 (Christian Stoll / Walter Mattenberger) are now all flying in Spanish Airspace.
Team USA 2 is currently in the lead. However, we are now at the beginning of a long night and the strategies will certainly result into some interesting outcome by the time the sun is going to rise over Spain.
Enjoy the live-tracking. Think of the pilots and wish them luck. Good night!
In Geneva, we will keep an eye on you – for sure!
