France's presidential race heats up

In approximately six months time, French voters will head to the polls for the first round of the presidential election. Due to term limits, current president Emmanuel Macron is barred from running again. But that hasn't stopped a whole host of candidates from tossing their hat in the ring. On the far-right, Marine le Pen of the National Rally is hoping to finally achieve victory, but she'll be facing the far-left's France Unbowed leader Jean-Luc Melenchon. Meanwhile a new candidate entered the French presidential race on Monday, judo champion Teddy Riner. The announcement has apparently been greeted enthusiastically by Macron, who hasn't yet formally backed either of his former prime ministers currently running - Edouard Philippe and Gabriel Attal. We discuss their chances with our guest Portugese journalist Ana Navarro Pedro.
