A combination of an extremely tight Volvo Ocean Race scoreboard and some desperation from the back of the pack is bound to make things interesting when the Miami In-Port Race goes off today, with live coverage right here beginning at 12:40 PM Eastern time/9:40 California. I’ll be on, of all places, an Umpire boat, so chances are I won’t be able to update live, but it ain’t like I’ll do better than the excellent surface and helo cameras from IMG production anyway, so be sure to check it out. In contrast to the 30/25/20/etc. points of the offshore legs, the In-Port awards 6/5/4/etc. points for the intense, one-hour race, and even the dogs have a chance when boatspeed is only a little piece of the puzzle. Check it out above, and check out the Leg 7 Thread for all the latest info.
