The event could be a nice chance for James Spithill to walk his latest talk, having the chance to race a 1 to 1 match against Barker. 
Check entry list at cerclevoilebordeaux.com/classeA/race-docA/listes-inscrits. In January 2011 Barker ended 5th behind

So if I remember well they still have to race in the same event, and it could be a nice show seeing this two talented Cat & Cup sailors sailing solo without the tech millions behind and below them.

Ashby will be attending the Formula 18 Worlds at Ireland after Bordeaux . He will race with Brett Goodall on a C2. Official website https://2014.f18worlds.com/
