The race was first called Whitbread Round the World Race and started in early 70s, then 2001-2002 was the first edition with new sponsor and was called Volvo Ocean Race and now it is called Ocean Race. Volvo is still a sponsor (smaller then before) but doesn't own the race anymore.
I still have the photo of Illbruck on my wall i shot that very day in Kiel from 10 meters away on the water. What a Party....
I still love the 'they realized they where sinking'
Too bad the music is too loud, so it's sometimes hard to hear the voice-over.
The narration is drowned in the 'background' (NOT) music. Why is the music so loud ?

Hi! I really like your channel! But I don't know its history. The company Volvo is funding these races? PS greetings from Moscow Russia!!
