EP7 airs 12/23 : "This is Forever, Now"
gator27:
To start the next leg, Nick & the Don are in last place. Why did none of the other teams try for the Fast Forward? Are Nick & the Don far enough behind that the other teams feel they can stay ahead even if Nick & the Don get the FF? (Does Chateau have pitstop arrival times?) Could we have a new FF rule that only the last place team is eligible?

Bunching? Either flights (unlikely) or hours of operation (very likely) allow Nick/Don to catch up with the others to get the FF clue. From there, it's a taxi race, which N/D can certainly win. This has happened before - Adam/Rebecca, BJ/Tyler, David/Mary (through some Chotrickery), and especially Lori/Bolo have all gotten the FF while in last (under the new rule; TAR 1-4 had different FF strategy).
I'm not Chateau (I just play one on message boards), but if I had to hazard a time guess, it would probably be:
Ron/Chris - 1:40
Goths - 1:45
Nate/Jen - 1:50
TK/Rachel - 4:00
Nick/Donald - 5:45
Given the speculative F3 (Nate/Jen, Nick/Donald, Bland/Blander) there has to either be some catch up provisions, major screw ups, and/or TBCs within the next few legs.
patlini:
if this is a standard 12 hour pitstop (who knows with this race)
they'll be released early in the night, so I think that they will all meet at the airport, on page 1 of this thread there are good flights listed. These leave dubrovnik at 7.30am. All teams should be able to make them.
I was wondering as to Nick/Don getting the fast forward, if there is self driving/nagivating I think those two will be in front. They were the first to St Annes Church in Vilnius.
Also I'm pondering whether the fly into Pisa and drive towards florence :cmas5

It's located at number 17, is run/named after someone called Fabio it and is in Empoli (30 miles southwest of Florence which would make sense for them to drive a bit to there -> pitstop).

:jumpy: That may be it, down_with_alli! Got this pix from the web site of the doctors office. That sure looks like the picture board near the front door. And that may be the statue in the corner. Maybe puddin can get a higher def vidcap to confirm. Good job, alli. :cmas16
