Crosbie Lorimer gives an update on the race to date, the retirements and the weather ahead.

N.B. The video with Mark Bradford that Crosby Larimer talks about in this particular video can be found right here. Editor's Note - Our great friend and self-confessed Bloody Pom does refer to the greater State of Tasmania (aka Van Diemen's Land) as Tasman Island during this video. He is indeed referring to the whole lot, not just the magnificent rocks in the SE corner.
