Maybe someone that just starting watching the show and didn't know the poll was already over?
Wild guess... I guess.

I guess my point is, they're letting the mexicans play without rules.
They let the brothers separate even though is against the rules.
They let the brothers play without their passports... against the rules.
The let the brothers check-in without their luggage, even though it's against the RULES... just this past weekend, Phil didn't let Chad and Stephanie do it because they didn't had their backpacks nor paid their cabbie so... I just don't like that.

After all the applied rules in the first couple of legs I thought this would be a fair race... but after this I lost every hope :(

Actually Phil didn't let Chad&Stephanie check-in because they didn't paid their taxi
The luggage can be leave in any part of the race... remember Steve&Allie in TAR16 and even Frank&Margarita in TAR1 changing their backpacks and leaving the extra weight in the airport...

I always thought that poll was to know how many viewers per country have the race...

1. Production didn't let them separate, they forced the first one to travel with the other teams (probably due to budget constraints)
2. It's not against the rules to compete without your passport (Toni & Dallas lost theirs and weren't eliminated on the spot.
3. You don't need your luggage to check in, remember Steve & Allie? Phil made Chad & Stephanie go back because they had to pay for their cab (this was the real reason).

DrRox:
You have to have your passport to check in at the mat. True that Toni/Dallas keep racing after they discovered they didnt have Dallas's passport. As soon as DanDrew checks in, then Phil went out and eliminated them. Up to that point, the lost passport was not the problem. When Dallas lost the TAR fanny pack, he also lost all their money. They had to start begging for funds to finish the leg. I am sure if it had just been his passport.....Toni and Dallas would have ended up like Zev/Justin and Phil would not have checked them in and made them look for it till the last team checked in.

Vitoko:
I have to confess that after a REWATCH of all the episodes aired so far plus the last episode, I have to eat a couple of my words...

Yes this race have lineal task where teams are not allowed to outrun another team, but are every two legs, or something like that, so they do can outrun others, they just don't do it because some teams are more competitive and are always racing, and others just perform the tasks kinda slow... still think that some task are weird and sometimes not the right one... for example the last speedbump in Rio de Janeiro was too easy and place it too early in the leg was weird...

I would put the teams to dance a capoeira or samba routine or something like that before the detour... nothing hard but the speedbump usually have something to do about the culture of the city...

This season it is getting exciting and the teams are getting more and more competitive with every leg...

The edition is better, details are missing but now that there is less teams to show they do show everything or at least everything important...

I have to add that I though that all the penalties were because the teams were not paying attention to the clue but sometimes it is the clue that is too technical that leads to penalties... sometimes...

I was totally impressed for the attitude of some teams the last leg... Aleandra&Marlene made it really good and were racing their ass off... both Aleandra&Marlene and Guilherme&Vinicius change their attitude completely and were racing without complaining or bickering with each other...

Still think this season needs a lot to improve but the last leg was a good one, I really enjoy it  :tup:
