Description: 5 days, 8 hours, 40 minutes and 26 seconds after setting off from Lisbon, “Telefónica” crossed the finishing line of the eighth leg of the Volvo Ocean Race in Lorient (France) at 22:40 local time (20:40 UTC). The boat had been sailing with just one rudder, the port rudder since the early hours of Thursday 14th June after a fateful descent from a wave that meant that the starboard rudder was put completely out of action.
