Before he left Valencia on Sunday for the first leg of the Route des Princes Oman Air- Musandam's skipper Sidney Gavignet spoke quietly of a 'rich get richer' scenario developing where the leading MOD70 might continue to reap a dividend by leading down the course and out of the Mediterranean on Leg 1, the 800 miles passage to Lisbon, Portugal. With twenty four hours elapsed it is Gavignet's team which has prospered almost since they rounded the Benicarlo mark north of Valencia on Sunday evening, six hours after the start. But for a minor blip, as they passed Cabo de Nao early this morning when Sébastien Josse and Edmond de Rothschild managed to squeeze ahead, sailing closer to the coast, the Oman Sail MOD70 team which has Briton Neal McDonald as navigator has managed to steadily increase their lead.
