23/02/2023 - 12:15 in Sport by The Ocean Race

The Cape Town In-Port Race presented by V&A Waterfront is the second event in the In-Port Race series for The Ocean Race 2022-23.

It follows the opener in January in Alicante, Spain where Team Malizia won the race, with 11th Hour Racing Team and Biotherm taking the other podium positions.

In addition to being a competition in its own right, the In-Port Race series also serves as the tie-breaking mechanism on the overall race leaderboard.

The forecast for Friday's Cape Town In-Port Race presented by V&A Waterfront is for 15 knot southeasterlies, with stronger gusts possible - perfect racing conditions for the course in Table Bay.
