The Ministry of Tourism performs various strategies and plans to promote our country as the best touristic destiny in Southamerica. In Ecuador we "Have Everything".

Also according to a youtube user, fan of the show, there is a TV Spot of new shows on "TC mi canal!", and "The Amazing Race Ecuador 2014" is featured on it, but I haven't been able to find an official with better quality... Alenaveda I sent you the link to it if you want to post it.

According to wikipedia:
TC mi canal! or TC Television is a public television network in Ecuador.

Their website seems to be broken so I don't really know much about it, and as far as I know, the applications process hasn't started yet.

Thanks for the effort! But all the material is from TARLA 3, what means that is probably a rerun of that season. You can also see Harris Whitbeck, who hosted the first three seasons, at the beginning of one of them :) .

It's ok, don't worry. Please keep having an eye on this. It's always great to have someone else who can help looking for this.  ;)
