Race conditions worsened quickly on Monday morning, leading to the cancellation of several planned activities. The rope workshop was abandoned after the first six teams had completed their part, and the sea kayaking section was canceled around 10:30 AM due to strong waves and an increasingly dangerous thunderstorm. Alyssa Godesky from the American team Vert said that four sections remain to be covered: a technical descent in a packraft, a mountain bike section to Saint-Florent on the coast, a final trek described as particularly difficult, and a final section combining trek and packraft. These four remaining sections are expected to take about 21 hours to complete. However, the event is now approximately twelve hours behind the initial forecasts, and teams, exhausted by five days of continuous racing, may need additional time to reach the finish line at L'Île-Rousse. The first competitors are expected to reach L'Île-Rousse around 4 or 5 o'clock on Wednesday morning, according to race director Pascal Bauhaud. Luberon MUC is currently leading, closely followed by the 400 Team Altore and the Estonian team ACE La Sportiva. Damon de Boor from the South African team Truffle Hunters noted that teams experienced a wide range of conditions, including waves as high as one meter. He humorously remarked on the change in weather, stating, "We had four days without wind, and when we arrived at sea, everything changed!" He added, "But it was a rather nice kayak outing!" The sea kayaking section, which was 29 km long and followed one of Corsica's most spectacular coastlines, was scheduled to close at 11 o'clock. The decision to interrupt the section was made less than two hours before that time. Teams that had set off before the 11 o'clock cutoff retained their Full Race status and continued to the next transition zone. Teams that arrived after 11 o'clock joined the transition by mountain bike but will no longer be classified in the Full Race. The race organizers emphasized the importance of safety amid the changing weather conditions, with the decision to cancel the sea kayaking section coming after careful evaluation of the risks. Race director Pascal Bauhaud confirmed that teams who completed the section before the cutoff time would still be eligible for the Full Race classification, while those who arrived after would be required to switch to a different mode of transport for the transition. This adjustment adds an extra layer of complexity to the remaining race, as teams now face the challenge of adapting to the new conditions while still striving to complete the course as efficiently as possible. The event, which is known for its grueling physical demands and challenging terrain, has become even more unpredictable with the sudden changes in weather. Competitors are now preparing for the final stretch of the race, which includes a mix of technical and physical challenges that will test their endurance and adaptability. As the race moves forward, the focus remains on ensuring the safety of all participants while maintaining the integrity of the competition.
