about six minutes after the Abu Dhabi team hit the line, the French fleet UNITA insurance team also arrived in Lisbon, finishing the seventh stage as the second place and obtaining 25 points. In the competition on the last day of this stage, UNITA once narrowed the distance between itself and Abu Dhabi to two nautical miles. Although it failed to surpass in the end, the 25 points still allowed the fleet to squeeze Telefonica Spain to the top of the table, which was also the first change of ownership in the table in seven months

at about 7:00 a.m. Beijing time, the experiment was repeated in step 5 (1) 1. Puma team reached the finish line smoothly and reached the top three in the championship. However, the last three fleets had a dramatic scene in the sprint stage: the wind speed suddenly fell below two knots, the water flow in the inner port of Lisbon was reversed, and Sanya and Telefonica were forced to anchor to prevent retrogression. Seeing that the destination was ahead, the three fleets were stuck and unable to move. Finally, the Spanish telecommunication team passed the finish line slowly, 102 seconds earlier than the fifth place Kanbu · New Zealand chiefs, and the distance difference between the two teams was only one ship's length

about 15 minutes later, Sanya team was the last to arrive in Lisbon and announced the official end of the seventh stage across the Atlantic
