They would have possibly to go through customs which takes a lot of time, right?

Based on the decoration of the Speed Bump board I'm guessing to make lanterns for the mid-autumn festival (which just passed)?

yup

Especially there are a lot of tourists right out there and I think they may sell lanterns

I think Henry knows Mandarin
To be honest,people in Hong Kong are fair in Mandarin
They only speak Cantonese and English
But yeah,they will have advantages

For pitstop,I  think it will be in crowded areas in Hong Kong (Like Statue Square in TAR17)

The Pitstop I bet that would likely to be at Kowloon Walled City Park. This has done in several TARs but has never in the US version.

Wouldn't all four teams continue to fly together anyway at this point?  Decoy team AND to be there at the finish line.  ???

Just so people don't get confused, the eliminated team will travel with production to the final city. Probably not with the final three teams. Also, it's been many seasons since they have run a decoy team on the final leg, so don't be expecting to see one.

Which is the more difficult part in a leg ? DETOUR or ROADBLOCK

Yes.

Depends on the case. Sometimes the roadblock is more difficult, sometimes the detour is. Sometimes the editing will confuse the issue too.

it depends.. The good thing about a detour is you can work together with your partner and if one is too challenging you can leave and try the other one.

Where as a roadblock once you chose a person to do it you are locked in and cannot trade with your partner (and they cannot help you).. Which is why a lot of teams get stuck on roadblocks.

Since this is leg 11 though there is no longer a trade off rule (if it is like past previous season) for the roadblock so each team will likely have their strongest person doing the roadblock.

Okay. Also since last leg has no roadblock, in the leg before that, any member can perform the same, regardless of whether s/he did the roadblock in last to last leg ?

We have seen no task except the ARI on the peak and Debaters' speed bump
No way to deduce which task is more difficu;t

Only TAR 29 did not have a roadblock for final leg

Gotcha! Thanks, thats some valuable info. It'll be fun watching Leg 11 roadblock then!! Stonger players will butt heads.
