I think we can be 99% sure of the first five legs:
Argentina > Argentina > Paraguay > Germany > Italy

We're sure of the last two:
Osaka > Hawaii

So that leaves five in the middle. We know Tanzania is at least one of the legs. It seems like a long way to go for just one leg, but a leg in northern Tanzania that involves the Masaai people is feasible logistically. There's at least one leg in Baku, Azerbaijan (which I'm really looking forward to). That leaves us with 8 countries. S13 had 8 as well, so it is possible.

Seasons of TAR normally have three or four locations (usually countries) with two legs. So far, we only know of one, Argentina. So this is my guess of the route:
Argentina > Argentina > Paraguay > Germany > Italy > Italy > Tanzania > Tanzania > Azerbaijan > Japan > Japan > USA

But there could easily be a ninth country in the middle there somewhere. Maybe in the Middle East or maybe a South-East Asian city instead of one of the double countries.

It's unusual to have two legs in Japan. Because all the time they had just one leg there. Well I dunno. :duno:

Looking back at a few 'live sightings', I think we can now rule a few of them out. One Tweeter claimed that the race landed at Doha from Nepal, but that doesn't make sense at all. Another claimed that he saw the BB team on a flight from Doha to Beijing, which also doesn't match up with Azerbaijan. Baku doesn't connect with Doha so there'd be no reason to go there.

In fact, looking at both Tweeter's profiles, they both Tweeted an absolutely obscene amount of times on the 14th December before their 'sightings'. Almost definitely fake, and working together.

I like the route Dom El. Only thing that bothers me is that it's a long jump from Azerbaijan to Japan. I think a leg should fall somewhere in the middle with only one leg in the finale country.

I hope so.

But when press releases get released don;t they mention all the new countries?

it's on wiki - where they mentioned the countries they visited - and no laos was not there.

Do you want me to go on wiki and add Laos for you? Anyone can add whatever they want to it.

I am going to bloody well scream if one more person honestly thinks wiki is a valid source of spoiler info. Puh-leez.

Could there be two legs in Italy? It seems probable.

I remember when en.wiki was closed and I decided to end loading it before the black script came up, I remember seeing Lesotho, thus, teams must have been in Lesotho. :tup:

I could say the race ended on the moon and someone would probably start looking for flights.

They don't always mention all the new countries or all of the countries in the press releases. There's no hard and fast rule.
