thank you all for the tips. using the routing tool, trying to learn.
went west, but maybe a bit too much 😁
Are you playing with or without options?

We as virtual skippers are free to race.
Going West shows more favourable winds and angles. I would not advise to go coast hugging.

what would be the best choice of downwind angle on IMOCAs and why? I usually choose the angle with the best VMG, according to the polaires, but I see most other competitors going 10 or 15 degrees higher. that is faster, but the VMG is not so good. what am I doing wrong?
It is about taking the fastest route. Best VMG does not always take you in good winds. Read the forecast, analyze it and plot your course. As franckhamburg wrote, there is no manual for that. Play and learn. If you want to use, there are routers but do not blindly follow them.

another topic, best strategy to sail round the south atlantic high in this leg? I cant find forecast weather that goes more than 7 days.
My advise, don’t hug the coast, go south and take the strong winds to Capetown.

Comment cela fonctionne-t-il et où puis-je voir le classement ?

It is all the same for everybody. It is an extra challenge
