I don't think there is a U-Turn on this leg. There would be no chance for the team with the fast forward to use it, they never put those things on the same leg.

I agree DrAw :tup:
serendipity:
In TAR history it seems that even a team lost the FF battle still managed to survive in that leg.
For example:
TAR 4 - Kelly/Jon in Malaysia (beat by Richien/Chip), finished 4 out of 5
TAR 6 - Jonathan/Victora in France (beat by Adam/Rebecca), finished 5 out of 6
TAR 7 - Rob/Amber in South Africa (beat by Ray/Deana), finished 5 out of 7
TAR 9 - Joseph/Monica in Greece (beat by Eric/Jeremy), finished 2 out of 6
TAR 9 - Ray/Yolanda in Thailand (beat by BJ/Tyler), finished 3 out of 4
So even Nick/Starr or Terence/Sarah failed to win the FF, from statistics it does not necessarily mean that they would get eliminated.

Good statistics. But at the same time, are there any teams who went for the FF and got eliminated because they didn't get it? I know Brandon and Nicole didn't get their FF and wasn't eliminated. Nobody snatched the FF with Nic/Don, Tyler/James, Rob/Kim and David/Mary got their own FF, Oswald/Danny and Uchenna/Joyce got their own FF as well. Maybe... a season of firsts remember?
Well. Maybe not. Momily got eliminated (dang, they could have not been eliminated) because they missed the FF. :(

In my mind, I don't remember any situation where a team was eliminated in a FF fight.
Brandon/Nicole's case is different because they just gave up but not beat by another team.
Nancy/Emily could have survived even losing the FF, they were eliminated because of other mistake (not finishing detour).
And here are more examples:
Derek/Drew in TAR 3 failed to get the FF in Leg 1 (Mexico) but still avoided elimination, finished 11 out of 12.
Andrew/Dan failed to get the FF in New Zealand (Leg 4) but finished 6 out of 8.
I remember that only Mary/Peach were eliminated because of not getting the FF in Hong Kong.

i'd also like to add this from www.ctv.ca
- In a haste to avoid elimination, one team leaves behind something very important. And a team takes a huge risk only to find they can't stomach the meat from a sheep's rear.

Perhaps the thing left behind is the Golden Egg which teams were supposed to carry with them to the pit stop. In past TARs teams have located something and had to carry it with them to the end.
