How do you win the Volvo Ocean Race?
The race uses a high scoring system, and the overall winner will be the team with the most points at the end of the race. All legs will count with no discards allowed.
For leg points, the winner will be awarded the total of the number of entries (six) multiplied by five, i.e. 6 x 5 = 30 points for the winner.
For In-Port races, the ratio is six boats multiplied by one, accounting for approximately 20% of the total points on offer.
