Clipper Race 2013-14: watch the start of the round the world race: live stream Team Great Britain skipper Simon Talbot is itching for the race to start after a lengthy build up. "Everyone is getting increasingly excited as we approach race start day," said the 44-year-old London-born skipper. We've worked very hard and are just very much looking forward to getting out and getting the job started. At the moment, the team is very hot in their belief.

Nerves may come as we hit the water but right now we are too focused to really feel the pressure.
