  • I love THE AMAZING RACE!!!
This season will feature 10 teams, which includes Li Xiaopeng & Li Anqi from Season 1, and will be aired on June 2016.
This season is an "Olympic" Edition, which means the route will feature 10 cities that have hosted (Summer) Olympic.
They claim that the producers from the American version will help producing the show, and also the show will be edited by the editors from the American version.
Hopefully, this season will look more alike to the American version.

Cities that will be visited (Announced):
Athens, Greece
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Los Angeles, California
Atlanta, Georgia
Tokyo, Japan

Other Possible cities:
Beijing, China (Starting/Finish Line)
London, England
Moscow, Russia
Rome, Italy
Montreal, Canada
Munich, Germany
Mexico City, Mexico
Helsinki, Finland

I recognized Vanness Wu from the boy band F4 many years ago. He was my idol in the early-to-mid 2000s. Give Vanness and his sister for a support to win the race.
