You are correct. Leg 4 we did a FF in Italy and in Leg 7 we did all challenges together in the first of two legs in Tanzania.

Greatest adventure of my life! I have endless memories!

I think they mean how taxis work in Russia, as teams have commented on before. There aren't really registered taxis in Russia, and anyone can offer to give the teams a lift. That's how James & Abba lost their passport.

After watching TAR Canada's recent episode, on the last task before the Pit Stop (canoe to the Pit Stop), can a team use their Express Pass on it? If yes, who should they handed it to?
They only use EP in roadblock, detour and Performance Route Info task such as traditonal dancing task in leg 5 of TAR 22
I don't know whatever team can use EP in intersection or Double-Battle (Face Off) task

Here's a thought. What if a team member on TAR28 had done all 6 of their Roadblocks before the team reached the double-Roadblock on Leg 9?

I guess after the racer's 5th roadblock, the clue will state that the other member must to the roadblock. By the 1st roadblock of Leg 9, that note will disappear, then it will return on succeeding legs. I think that's how it'll work. ???

Is there any knowledge of where the U-Turn board was placed in Leg 3 of Season 28?

In light of the successful U-turn of Seth and Olive c/o Tara and Joey, when are the other times of successful U-turns of the race? Meaning a strong team eliminated early because of a U-turn or a strong team unexpectedly eliminated because of a U-turn.

Chance favors prepared minds.

If Team A and B use an electronic u-turn on an early leg, can Team A and B use a courstery-of u-turn on a later leg?

Do you count the u-turn killing
Abbie & Ryan?
Brodie & Kurt?

maybe Kisha & Jen?

I would consider

Brandon & Adam (S.23) they were U-Turned by Leo & Jamal in Poland. Brandon & Adam finished 1st on the previous leg (Norway).

Joe & Heidi (S.16) were finishing in the front pack and they were U-Turned by Louie & Michael

Arguably the very first U-Turn (Lorena & Jason were U-Turned despite being one of the first to finish almost every task that didn't have anything to do with camels).

Definitely Amanda & Kris (in TAR 14) who finished 5-3-2-8.

There are a lot of cases of successful U-turns. In fact, Brook & Claire from TAR17 were the 1st ever team to survive a U-turn (but that's only because the W-turn was introduced right then and there). Bill & Cathi would've been the very 1st to survive a U-turn, although the subjective term of successful applies to Bill & Cathi, as Ernie & Cindy's reason of U-turning Bill & Cathi is for the latter not to beat the former in a race for 1st.

Poor task choice has to be up there.
