Tour De France à La Voile

For its 38th edition, the Tour de France à la Voile has undergone a revolution. Out with the monohulls and in with the trimarans! Also, no more sailing from one venue to another, instead races will be shorter, more intense and spectacular, so the crowd will be closer to the action.
