Delta Lloyd crossed the finish line off Singapore at 20:07:05 GMT Tuesday, or just after 4am local time on Christmas Eve. The team managed to finish under their own power despite damaging their keel ram system earlier in the leg. Delta Lloyd is expected dockside around 07:00 local time, and we'll have reaction from the crew then.

12:30 GMT update
Delta Lloyd is making great speed towards the finish line off Singapore. The final boat at sea in leg three of the Volvo Ocean Race is making 15 knots and at noon (GMT) had just over 60 miles to run.
Earlier today, navigator Matt Gregory wrote that team couldn't wait to cross the line and join in the holiday festivities in Singapore.
"Our biggest excitement is to find out what goodies of food and beverages our shore team has waiting for us at the finish line for the three hour motor ride to the harbour. Hopefully it will be something good."
At current pace, the team will finish late afternoon GMT, or in the early hours of the morning local time. Then, it's about a three hour motor into the port at Sentosa Island where the team will be reunited with friends and family, just in time for Christmas Eve in Singapore.
We'll have full coverage of the finish and dockside reaction right here.
