Thats what we hear. Only 1 FF was available this season and thats that. As far as the U-Turn I have no idea when and where it might be and I think they are pre-planned FLFan. TPTB don't just stick them where they want just like the NEL legs. And when the next NEL is one could only guess so I'll guess its leg 10 but really have no idea at this point.
If you follow Phils blog he states that the Sisters and Marge/Luke come in mere seconds of each other. What the placings are I don't know but for sure not last.
I'll go with the Mark and Michael being eliminated with the evidence posted through out this topic.

apskip:
FAST FORWARD opportunities are available typically in a clue packet in conjunction with either ROADBLOCKs or DETOURs. I have changed my mind of the possibility of a FAST FORWARD being all that could save Mark/Michael because the maximum 3 hours saved would mean little to them since other teams will be finished before they arrive.

I now think that the only thing that can save them is hours of operation starting around 6pm and lasting until sometime arfter they arrive and complete all prior tasks. The probability of that is very small.

TARAsia Fan:
We have seen one Hours of Operation and that was in Siberia at the dam.

CABoSoxFan:
HI All, I tend to lurk more than posting, but this is just an observation.  I've noticed in the last few TAR previews they haven't been showing much on the 1st place teams.  The previews we have seen lately haven't featured much on Cara/Jaime, so I have to safely assume the following order:

1st - Cara/Jaime (have no clue, no previews on them)
2nd - Lakisha/Jen (based on Neobie's observations)
3rd - Tammy/Victor
4th - Margie/Luke (either 1st or 4th - LOL)
5th - Michael/Mark (based on spoilers)

So, if my theory proves correct, then remember I said it!   :waves:

scruffs:
has there had been any instance where both a speedbump and u-turn were on a same leg....
i really don't think so....
usually u-turns or yields are placed on non-elimination legs.... well except on the leg where kris and jon were eliminated.... actually i'm hoping that it was a NEL but it turned out to be an elimination one....

hey raymond, i don't know about the kisha-jen dislike :duno: .... i just believe they can't win this whole thing.... and in the preview where she battled her way out to the clue against luke,,, i mean there is a clue for every team, why do a bad stuff like that, unless they are the last team and they are aware of it!

i'm still hoping mark and michael survived the speedbump, i don't think that the fact that they are at least 5hours behind the first team will be a factor for them to stay in the last,,, usually when flights are considered, they all end up having the same flight (in this case to guilin, china) i'm crossing my fingers.... :lol:
