AUCKLAND Uomo Nike Air Force 1 Low Just Do It Bianche Offerta , New Zealand, March 18 (Xinhua) -- China's team Dongfeng is relying on the spirit of its crew, though two of them young and inexperienced, to edge it into the lead in the most arduous leg of Volvo Ocean Race round-the-world competition.
The six sailing boats left Auckland Wednesday after a three-day delay caused by Tropical Cyclone Pam, which is still expected to cause problems as it dies out east of New Zealand.
The teams face a three-week crossing of the Southern Ocean -- with strong winds, deep waves and freezing temperatures -- and a rounding of the storm-ravaged Cape Horn before reaching Itajai in Brazil.
Dongfeng skipper Charles Caudrelier said the team was aware of its inexperience Uomo Nike Air Max 97 Just Do It Nere Saldi , with only three of the eight sailing crew having sailed Cape Horn and neither of the two on-board Chinese crew having race experience at 40 knots.
"We are prepared for this one for sure, but also we have rookies on board. They have never sailed in storm conditions and it will be their first time, so, sure, we are ready, but compared to the other boats we have less experience on board Uomo Nike Air Max 95 Just Do It Bianche Saldi ," Caudrelier told Xinhua before leaving.
Dongfeng is currently in the second place and narrowly trailing team Abu Dhabi Ocean Racing, but with the Auckland-Itajai leg being the longest of the race, it could make all the difference to the scoreboard.
The two on-board Chinese crew members, Liu Xue, referred to as Black, who celebrated his 22nd birthday in Auckland scarpe nike air max 2017 , and Yang Jiru, 24, were quick learners, said the French skipper.
"We work a lot and the Chinese sailors are fantastic students and learn very quickly," Caudrelier said.
"This race is all about teamwork and we have a very good team, even if we have less experience on board. We have rookies on board scarpe nike air max typha , but spirit is the key, I think."
His advice to the Chinese crew members was: "Love what you do."
"Passion is important and then you can work a lot, and that's what they have done."
Black admitted that he and his team mate Yang still have a lot to learn from those more experienced sailors if they want to pursue sailing as a career and take more crucial posts in the race.
This fifth leg of the race will be followed by four more with the race expected to end in Sweden's Gothenburg in late June.
They arrived in Auckland late last month after crossing the Pacific from Sanya in China's southern island province of Hainan.
FERRARI has told Sebastian Vettel he just has to sign on the dotted line to stay with the Formula One glamour team next season.
The championship leader is out of contract at the end of the year but Ferrari chairman Sergio Marchionne set out his team’s position at the Austrian Grand Prix. “I made it very clear that if he wants to stay then we’ll just renew it. It’s up to him,” Marchionne told reporters before Sunday’s race.
Vettel has delayed contract talks to focus on the championship battle, saying there will be plenty of time over the summer, and any haggling is likely to be about money and the number of years.
The German scarpe nike air max dlx , a 4-time world champion, moved 20 points clear of closest rival Lewis Hamilton after finishing runner-up to the Briton’s Mercedes teammate Valtteri Bottas at the Red Bull Ring in Spielberg.
With the 20-round season approaching the halfway point at Silverstone next weekend, Vettel has won three races and it would probably have been four had he been given one more lap on Sunday.
As it was, he missed out by a mere 0.6 of a second.
Speaking to the Italian media afterwards, Marchionne said there was plenty to be happy about, however. “It was very close. We are there and our German friends know it scarpe nike air max classic bw ,” he said.
“They can feel us breathing down their necks but we will cut this little gap. I am much happier than I was in the past.”
While Vettel leads the standings, champion Mercedes stretched its lead in the constructors’ standings to 33 points and is 5-3 to Ferrari on wins.
But while Hamilton and Bottas have shared the spoils of victory, Vettel has been leading the charge for Ferrari with more than twice as many points as his Finnish teammate Kimi Raikkonen.
Vettel’s only obvious alternative to the most successful team in Formula One history would be Mercedes, but the German has already laughed off rumors of that happening.
Mercedes non-executive chairman Niki Lauda has also dismissed a move.
“A Ferrari driver, his head is for Ferrari, and the money in the end is also there scarpe nike air max motion ,” he said.
BEIJING, July 21 (Xinhuanet) -- Japanese right-wing forces have been dreaming of revising their pacifist constitution for a long time. Their main aim is to change the 9th Article which says Japan forever renounces war and the threat or use of force as a means of settling international disputes. One of the principles of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party is to “draw up an independent constitution”.
On April 24th, 2007, Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said during a meeting of the Liberal Democratic Party that: It is necessary to revise the current Constitution, which was imposed by the US.
But according to the then-Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers, American General Douglas MacArthur scarpe nike air max deluxe , it was the then-Japanese Prime Minister Kijuro Shidehara who originally proposed the inclusion of outlawing war into the Constitution. He came to MacArthur and told him he thought the only way to establish peace was to renounce war and he suggested putting that into the draft constitution. MacArthur once disclosed this information to the US Congress.
At the end of 2012, Abe was re-elected as Japanese Prime Minister and he continued his effort to push for a constitutional revision.
On May 5th 2013, wearing a Yomiuri Giants shirt with the number 96 on it, Abe showed up as a guest judge at the Tokyo Dome baseball stadium. The commentator blurted out ”Number 96? It ha.
