Tom Dolan, the reigning Solitaire du Figaro Paprec champion, has announced his withdrawal from the third leg of the solo offshore race.
The decision comes after an injury he sustained early in Leg One, and he finished 25th in Leg Two last Friday.
Despite the injury, he finished in sixth place, earning the Suzuki Fighting Spirit Award for his remarkable comeback from 20th position.
However, the injury worsened and showed no signs of improvement.
Dolan, after consulting with his medical team, prioritised safety, stating, “I am just not capable of going around it.
