The YCCS set up two race courses, one for the coastal race of around 27 miles, which took the fleet clockwise around the islands of La Maddalena and Caprera and then back to Porto Cervo, and the other for the windward-leeward races set for the 10 yachts competing in the inaugural Rolex IMA Maxi 1 World Championship and the 4 yachts racing in the Maxi 2 class - former Maxi72 class boats now racing under the IRC rule.

For Thursday 12th September, the Race Committee intends to set a coastal course for all classes, with the first start at 11 a.m. CEST. However, weather models indicate a return of the Mistral, with gusts that could reach and exceed 30 knots.
