I will have to favor the loss of their passports. They are kept in that special fanny pac with all the other documents they have to keep safe, like route markers and detour/roadblock clues. If they lost that bag, then at a minimum it would be 48 hours to get a new passport re-issued so they could continue on. By then the production company crews would be so far down the race, that the route markers/detours/roadblocks would have been finished. It sounds to me like it took so long to resolve, that they couldnt even get to the finish line to join in the finish.

Hmmm. What if the team that lost what we are presuming to be passports are not the last team to the PitStop? Are you Philiminated if you do not bring all your race clues?
How about this: Team Lose your Passport arrives 4th. Team in 5th Philiminated. At teh start of the next leg, Team Lose your Passport cannot get out of K-stan, thus are Philiminated.
Or this: Team Lose your Passport arrives 4th. Team in 5th arrives, but Phil tells them he has good and bad news. The bad news is that you are last. The good news, one team was dumb enough to lose their passports and are stuck in K-stan for a few days, so you get to continue on the race!

My guess is that the team who loses the Passport arrives before at least one other team, and when the last team arrives Phil tells them that they are the last team to arrive -- however, one team was dumb enough to lose their passports and were stuck in Kazakhstan for a few days, so the team who lost their passports are Philiminated instead! And I'll be dying of laughter! :funny:

48 hours to issue a passport. I think from Kazakstan to 2 legs in Moscow. It fits perfectly?
Imagine if a team lost their passports and got eliminated on Leg 8 because of it..
And TAR fly to Moscow, completed a leg. Another 12 hours pitstop.
And completed another leg and another 12 hours pitstop.
That's even less than 2 days in total. (Teams won't need a total of 24 hours to complete the 2 legs worth of tasks?)
And if they are flying back to USA. I think the left behind team in Kazakstan, after finally getting their passports after 2 days.. will be on a race to find a flight back to USA when the final 3 teams are also flying back to USA as well? I think they might just miss joining the final 3 at the finishing line.
Anyone can check for the number of flights leaving Kazakstan to USA per day and how long does it take? I don't really know how to do flight checking..
