Friday's In-Port Race in Cape Town is scheduled to start in perfect racing conditions at 1415 local time / 1215 UTC.

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. The leaderboard is here.

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. Here are the crew lists for the Cape Town In-Port Race presented by V&A Waterfront and for Leg 3: Cape Town to Itajaí.
