ESPRIT LARGE GRAND VAINQUEUR D’UNE \u00c9DITION \u00c9PIQUE DE LA CIC NORMANDY CHANNEL RACE<\/span><\/h1>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>

\u00c0 l\u2019issue d\u2019une course au sc\u00e9nario \u00e9pique, c\u2019est le Class40 Esprit Large (209) qui d\u00e9croche le graal en coupant la ligne d\u2019arriv\u00e9e mouill\u00e9e face \u00e0 Ouistreham en t\u00eate \u00e0 18h 23min 16s apr\u00e8s 4 jours 4 heures 23 minutes et 16 secondes de course. Ils devancent Sogestran \u2013 Seafrigo (197) de peu. Guillaume Pirouelle et C\u00e9dric Ch\u00e2teau sont en passe de d\u00e9crocher l\u2019argent sur cette course historique. Legallais (199), vainqueur de l\u2019\u00e9dition 2024 et grand animateur de cette \u00e9dition est en ballotage favorable pour grimper sur la troisi\u00e8me et derni\u00e8re marche du podium.<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Corentin Douguet et Axel Tr\u00e9hin auront livr\u00e9 une prestation tr\u00e8s solide en prenant le leadership de la flotte au bout de 24h de course seulement, et le passage au sud du DST Casquets. Ensuite ils auront su d\u00e9jouer tous les pi\u00e8ges qu\u2019a r\u00e9serv\u00e9 cette \u00e9dition m\u00e9morable. D\u2019abord en ayant su faire le dos rond face aux conditions de mer et de vent rudes en Manche, puis en acc\u00e9l\u00e9rant au moment opportun pour deux longs bords de reaching aller-retour en Mer Celtique, avant de n\u00e9gocier parfaitement le passage des anglo-normandes et le contournement du Cotentin malgr\u00e9 la forte pression des poursuivants. Effectivement, le duo vainqueur aura su contenir les attaques des poursuivants qui, en grappillant petit \u00e0 petit des milles sur leurs pr\u00e9d\u00e9cesseurs, nous ont offert un final d\u2019exception en quasi match racing. Corentin Douguet prend ainsi sa revanche sur l\u2019\u00e9dition 2022 o\u00f9 il \u00e9tait arriv\u00e9 second seulement 10 minutes apr\u00e8s Cr\u00e9dit Mutuel. Quant \u00e0 lui, Axel Tr\u00e9hin rejoint le club tr\u00e8s ferm\u00e9 des doubles vainqueurs de la CIC Normandy Channel Race avec Pierre Brasseur (2013 et 2019), Phil Sharp (2017 et 2018), Pablo Santurde Del Arco (2016 et 2017) et Ambrogio Beccaria (2022 et 2023).\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0Je suis super heureux d\u2019inscrire la CIC Normandy Channel Race \u00e0 mon palmar\u00e8s parce que c\u2019est une des courses pilier du circuit. Derri\u00e8re c\u2019est revenu tr\u00e8s fort, on a essay\u00e9 de tuer le match sans jamais vraiment r\u00e9ussir. Dans ces courses en double il faut mettre du rythme tout le temps parce que personne ne l\u00e2che l\u2019affaire \u00bb <\/em>d\u00e9clare Corentin Douguet \u00e0 l\u2019arriv\u00e9e \u00e0 Ouistreham.<\/p>\n

De son c\u00f4t\u00e9 Axel Tr\u00e9hin se r\u00e9jouit d\u2019inscrire son nom sur la coupe pour la seconde fois\u00a0: \u00ab\u00a0\u00c7a fait super plaisir de devenir double vainqueur de cette \u00e9preuve. C\u2019est une course dans laquelle il y a tellement de jeu, tellement difficile, il y a des coups \u00e0 faire tout le temps. Vivement l\u2019ann\u00e9e prochaine pour tenter de devenir l\u2019unique triple vainqueur.\u00a0\u00bb<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
