Storm force winds have forced Clipper Ventures to delay the start of their latest Clipper Round the World Race. The start was due to take place today at 1400 from Liverpool, but in the face of severe weather the start has been postponed by 24 hours.

The start will take place tomorrow (Monday) at 1400. BBC Liverpool will be doing a live webcast of it, as originally planned. Click on:www.www.bbc.co.uk/liverpool/features/2002/10/clipper_race/webcast.shtml
