In 2021, it was a duel between two velomobiles that ended after 12,000 km / 7,500 miles with a difference of only 3 hours. This year, it's a race between a velomobile piloted by 2021 winner Jean-Marc Dubouloz, and a two-wheeled recumbent ridden by Jack Butler, who took part in the 2018 race to Canton, China. After more than 6,000 km / 3,750 miles, the gap between them is insignificant, with only two or three days at most to go.
