According to Baidu Forum, the first leg (NYK) is an elimination leg.

They should be off to India soon. Other than airports, sightings there are difficult to find.

Rumor says the filming is delayed due to some trouble with the crew's visas...

It's not directly related to the race itself, but I find it interesting and hence I put it here:

Two celebrities who the crew contacted and were cut before filming are under arrest for stashing and taking marijuana (over 100 grams, a felony that could sentence the criminal to 3 or more years' imprisonment). That arrest is a big piece of news in Chinese entertainment.

The crew are so lucky.

American jail or Chinese labor camp?

Ordinary jail. China has abolished the labor-camp system. Usually people who take drugs commit only a misdemeanor and are to be detained for 14 days. But this time one of the duo (Jackie Chan's son) stashed so much marijuana that was more than twice of the conviction criterion (50 grams), and thus he may be convicted of drug trade which would definitely be a felony.

The second nation visited is India.

There may be an alteration in the host, according to some inside news.

NEWS: We'll see a host replacement!

Allan Wu returns to be the host of the show! He'll host the following legs since Leg 3 (India). The original host Andy On only hosts the first two legs (American legs). There'll be explanation for doing this on the show.

Although the real reason for doing this, according to the rumor, is that

the crew are not satisfied with Andy's hosting. Maybe that's due to his lack of experience?

Really such an interesting production.

But yay for Allan.  It just feels right having Allan, doesn't it?

ETA: It seems Allan has pretty much spoiled the entire Jaipur leg on his official Facebook page! lol

It's not even comparable to some contestants' spoilers on Weibo.com directly saying "we're strategizing for the third leg of #TheAmazingRaceChina which is in India and please support us and give us advice" blablabla...  :funny:

The filming for India legs was over last night. The crew returned to Hong Kong.

SOURCE: Baidu Forum. Someone claims that his friend spotted the crew.

Jackie Chan's son was supposed to be on the race?

Yes, he was invited, but got cut later. (Or he refused to race. We don't know exactly what happened.)

The entire route has been divulged on Weibo.com. (The picture looks really official  :res:)

Leg 1: US (NEL)
Leg 2: US
Leg 3: India
Leg 4: India (NEL)
Leg 5: Dubai
Leg 6: Dubai
Leg 7: Greece (NEL)
Leg 8: Greece
Leg 9: Austria (NEL)
Leg 10: Hong Kong & Shenzhen (Finale)

It's very weird to have 3 teams only at the beginning of Leg 9 and to make that leg a NEL. We'll see a speedbump in the finale.  :funny:

ETA: Here's the original picture. I have a feeling that all teams know which leg is an elimination leg and which one is not.  :res:
