ICAP Leopard achieved the third position after a long and hard-fought battle with the last year's winner Wild Oats XI and this time winner Alfa Romeo.

Still till now no team could break the record created by Wild Oats XI, though Alfa Romeo won but they did not defeat the old record set by Wild Oats XI. ICAP Leopard crossed the Tasmanian finish line after two day, sixteen hours and forty-fives minutes at sea. The windy weather was a little help to the sailors but the desire of winning was higher which made the crew stand against the worse weather conditions also. The Rolex Hobart Sydney Race is known for its fearsome weather conditions which makes this competition a very interesting competition to view. But this year the weather conditions were very hard-pressed which did not give tacticians and navigators any advantage to puff of the breeze and make this competition a neck-to-neck fight. The winds were cold and blustery for the race which made the race even harder to win. With such torturous weather conditions ICAP Leopard gave a hard-fight to Alfa Romeo. The forecasts changed hourly since the very start and no one could predict the weather till the very finish of the race. This race brought an immense tactical battle between all the super-maxi yachts. It is disappointing to know that ICAP Leopard could not take the line honour title also but Alfa Romeo should be credited for taking a lead in the impeccable race.ICAP Leopard has missed the historic treble as it has already won the Rolex Fastnet and Middle-Sea races earlier in the season. If ICAP Leopard had won this race then the team would have all three "offshore classic" in the season. The effort put by the team was tremendous which gave then the third position.

This time the best sports team was Alfa Romeo but ICAP Leopard gave a good fight to this team also.

The event is a test of aerodynamics and stability of cars at high speeds and also encourages the innovation of fuel-efficient vehicles as it requires little time to be spent in the pits. There are currently four classes of competition, the custom-made Le Mans Prototype LMP1 and LMP2, and the Grand Tourers GT1 and GT2. The top two classes LMP1 and LMP2 have mostly won the event, though the lower classes have won occasionally due to reliability. The number of competitors on the race field has generally been 50.

After undergoing a number of modifications the current track is 13.65 km in length for safety reasons. The safety barriers for the public section have to be assembled and dismantled every year. The endurance races have evolved over the years and have now incorporated rules to better manage the race. Earlier there were no rules as to the number of drivers and how long they could drive. Now, drivers are not allowed to drive for more than four hours at a stretch and no one driver can run for more than fourteen hours in total. These rules have come as a relief as they have successfully reduced driver fatigue during the races.
