Assuming this may go into this leg.

Bits and pieces from the spoiler discussions:

Regarding the post above, I think the FB post was saying that production and the racers stayed at a village residence. He is saying they took over the place with over 100 production. I believe this is the place. http://locations.lastminute.com/produit.aspx?lieu_id=366&lihe_id=5389&typp_id=10&utm_medium=meta_search&utm_source=lve&utm_campaign=core_selfcatering&utm_content=summer_hs&utm_term=Grimaud_5389&acntb=selfcatering&date=14/10/2017&duree=7&tag_uci=plve-RKLCCz2zIB8JTfDJ&marque_uci=LVE&org_lve=lve

Slowhatch found this one with nice pics too. https://goo.gl/maps/ayvLyum12f32

Timing strongly suggested an extended Pitstop.

I would bet self drive.  It's a great way to scramble the teams and it's super common and convenient to drive in that area.  The trains take you out of the way unnecessarily.

Discussion includes maps/tolls etc...I have driven this area multiple times and continue to also believe this is a great self driving leg.

And the new Sneek Peak shows us what could be the Roadblock (spec) in Leg 5, since we only see some of each team doing it.

I was thinking the task in the sneak peak was probably leg 4 just because 100% of the people doing that particular task (according to the sneak peak and press pics) are the ones who have currently done less roadblocks than their partners.

Good thought! And water sports could be better in St Tropez? Maybe Google and see if you can find the sailboat rental place? I can move this to Leg 4 if it looks better, post what you find! :tup:

Are the boats that we see BasketBall stacking the same as these boats? If so, you are almost certainly right!

Didn’t Phil mention a boat in that pit stop video live sighting?

That was leg 4 pit stop talking to Basketball- he also mentioned their Speed Bump in it

To me, it looks the leg 5 roadblock is most likely the horse related task in the Arles Ampitheatre

It looks like individuals are running up to their horses, instead of full teams, and it seems we have a trebuchet building task and a sword fighting task in close proximity to each other later on

I do really think the Leg 5 Pit Stop is totally indeed an extended rest (probably 40+ hours).

Looks like teams might soar to new heights at Château des Baux de Provence and perhaps fire the Catapult at the Château des Baux.

How to get to Les Baux de Provence: Considering its popularity and its proximity to two major cities, Les Baux is hard to get to - though perhaps that's not surprising, considering that its reputation was built on its very inaccessibility.

The nearest rail station is Saint Martin de Crau, 14 km / 8.5 miles from the village. Click here for the train timetable. Select timetable no.8 (Marseille-Arles-Avignon) from the drop-down menu at the top of the page. However, there is no connecting bus service from Saint Martin de Crau to Les Baux de Provence.

A bus runs between Arles, Les Baux de Provence and Saint Rémy de Provence during the summer months only (with a connection to and from Avignon).

Other bus routes run throughout the year between Saint Rémy de Provence and Avignon, and between Salon de Provence and Arles, though neither of these passes through Les Baux. Links to the current bus timetables can be found on the website of the Les Baux de Provence Tourist Office.

By car, Les Baux is 19 km / 12 miles north-east of Arles and 30 km / 18.5 miles south of Avignon. The village is closed to cars. There is limited parking at the edge of the village, and you will need to be prepared to leave your vehicle quite a long way down the road in high summer.

http://www.avignon-et-provence.com/en/monuments/castle-baux


Excerpts:

The history of Les Baux is just as dark, fierce and turbulent. Built on a 245 metre (804 feet) high spur (in provençal, "baou" or "bau" means "rocky escarpment"), the village commands the surrounding flatlands - the Crau - and an important stretch of the Via Aurelia, the Roman road connecting Arles and Aix en Provence.

Known as the Val d'Enfer, or Valley of Hell, this dramatic, bleak and jagged mineral world is said to have inspired the poet Dante's vision of the same in his Divine Comedy.

The composer Charles Gounod wrote and set part of his 1863 opera Mireille there. The writer/film-maker Jean Cocteau shot Le Testament d'Orphée in the Valley of Hell in 1959 and described the eerie landscape as "a zone between life and death".
