The only way I can make Italy fit into our racer's timeline is if Steffie's Hotel was in Italy.  Is possible?   :duno:

I guess one working assumption is that teams came directly from Dubai. Dutch Samadhi, can we check if something got lost in the translation? Does the description mean they passed through Dubai some time back, or they came directly from there?

If we don't assume that Dubai was immediately before the Netherlands, here're the two possibilites on what happened:

Possibility A
27 Jul: Teams race Dubai, Phil races to Leg 6 in afternoon
28 Jul: Teams race Leg 6, Phil flies to Netherlands in afternoon
29 Jul: Teams spotted by Steffi and fly to Netherlands, Phil films Netherlands
30 Jul: Teams race Netherlands

Possibility B
27 Jul: Teams race Dubai, Phil flies to Netherlands in afternoon
28 Jul: Teams idle, Phil idle
29 Jul: Teams spotted by Steffi and fly to Netherlands, Phil films Netherlands
30 Jul: Teams race Netherlands

Possibility B would be strange, simply because there's an extra day that no one really needs. Possibility A could accomodate an extra leg in the UAE, Israel OR Italy. But going by TAR 14's pattern of Phil doing back-to-back races only on extremely short legs, I'm leaning towards the leg being in the UAE. Phil would have little time to film his stand-ups otherwise.

They raced the Netherlands on the 29th just after they returned. I saw it happen.

The implications of that statement are that teams landed in Amsterdam early enough to be able to race before arriving Groningen. Groningen is over 2 hours away from Schiphol Airport and the late afternoon arrivals of flights connecting from Dubai to Amsterdam in 7 different cities would not have allowed serious daylight racing on Wednesday July 29. My conclusion is that Dutch Samadhi's guidance effectively means teams would have to take a midnight to 2am flight from Dubai to reach AMS in the morning. Here are the choices:

KL428 DXB AMS 0005 0515
AF525 DXB CDG 0040 0545 connecting to AF1140 CDG AMS 0650 0805
LH631 DXB FRA 0125 0555  connecting to KL1762FRA AMS 0710 0830
LX243 DXB ZRH 0140 0625 connecting to  LX724  ZRH AMS 0720 0855
OS840 DXB VIE 0145 0605  connecting to OS371  VIE AMS 0725 0925

Wait!  Don't you mean Thursday the 30th?

Here is your post from another thread:

Quote
I've heard people saying they came from Schiphol on the very morning that the event took place so on thursday they would have arrived.

Again Good luck

I can't find any flights that would arrive early enough for the teams to make the 2 hour drive to Vierhuizen by 9 am.

Maybe they arrived the night before at Schiphol Airport and had to wait for the "garage to open" at 6 AM.  That would explain why we see 5 cars there with an expected 6th car to arrive shortly.  And a helicopter in the air.  It would be a bunch point that sets up the teams for multi-team shots on the bikes.

So Ericka and Brian got lost on the way to the windmill?  I hope they can dance well with wooden shoes!

Chateau,
Arrival at 0505 at Schiphol doesn't do it? I would think that it does.

Well I did just find this.  Don't know why I missed it the first time.

KL 428 from Dubai at 12:05 am July 30th directly to AMS landing at 5:20 am.

What did you have in mind for 5:05 am arrival, Shanghai?

But anyway, remember we have to accommodate the fact that SteffieSunrise reported the team was in Dubai, seeking flight information at about 7:50 am on the 29th .  So why would they take so long to get to AMS?

If we take Dutch Amadhi seriously, then here is a plausible (although not necessarily correct) string of hypotheses:

1. We are talking for some teams but not all starting racing in Netherlands during the day of July 29, not 30.

2. Teams that reached a 12 hour pit stop in Dubai well before noon on July 28 are the only ones that have a shot at making the 0005 flight DXB AMS. they arrive nonstop at 0520 and start transportation and tasks in the Netherlands.

3. Other teams would have access to the morning flights from Dubai to Amsterdam. That would allow a sighting on July 29 at 0750 and still making a 0925 departure to Rome (EK097 0925 1345 connecting to AZ132 FCO AMS 1445 1725) or a 0955 departure to Vienna (EK127 0955 1345 connecting to KL1846 VIE AMS 1500 1705).

But these racing activities in the Netherlands:  

1)  drive Mercedes to Windmill in Vierhuizen
2)  ride bike to  Zoutkamp
3)  perform detour
4)  etc

did not occur on Wednesday the 29th.  They happened on Thursday the 30th.  It says so in the video if you understand Dutch!

They'll probably leave tonight [31 Jul] From 16:00 onwards from schiphol.

Sounds like an extended Pit Stop to get them ready for Stockholm on 1 Aug, with Phil filming his stand-ups in Sweden on the 31st. After checking the teams in, Phil would have the 2nd to film Estonia, while the teams take the night ferry for a race day on the 3rd. I'm guessing just one leg for Stockholm?

See some sort of pattern?

Mauritius not possible timeline-wise. From Dubai on the 27th, to Mauritius the same day, and back to Dubai to be seen by SteffiSunrise on the morning of the 29th? :lol:

Now a TBC in Stockholm... that's interesting. We'd be fitting another leg in there somewhere to make it work though. (Leg 8 on the 1st, Leg 9 Stockholm on the 2nd, Leg 10 Tallinn on the 3rd.) So the question is... are we going to have 11 or 12 legs?

Just space for one last leg before the trip back to the States. Eurasia race again? :duno:

I agree, Mauritius this time again=no!  TBC in Stockholm=yes, Eurasia race again=no.  Africa is long overdue since TAR12.

At least one more city after Tallin or perhaps two.  Where?  Looking at the map it would be an ideal time to finally get to Prague or Bratislava (two cities on our someday must visit list.) Could also jump all the way to Africa: Algers, Morocco?
