Something that might reveal something? Need to read it through carefully before I can comment...
--- Quote ---Según un reporte que recibimos hoy, la cuota colombiana en The Amazing Race estaría conformada por una pareja de esposos y una pareja homosexual. Los competidores, incluidos los colombianos, habrían sido citados en Argentina de un día para otro para empezar la competencia. Así, ellos mismos con una carta de la productora debían tramitar unas 8 visas para moverse por toda Latinoamérica. Sin lugar a dudas los competidores que mas visas debieron tramitar fueron los colombianos. En un concurso en el que el tiempo es un factor crucial, se podría decir que los concursantes de nuestro pais tienen desventaja con respecto a los demás pues su paso por los aeropuertos podría tomar mas tiempo. Sin embargo todas estas eventualidades están consideradas dentro de las reglas del concurso de manera que ningún concursante tendría ventaja o desventaja por circunstancias como esta.

--- Quote ---According to a report we received today, Colombia will be represented in The Amazing Race by a married couple and a homosexual couple. The competitors, including the Colombians, will be starting the race in Argentina any day now. The racers, plus a letter from production to obtain 8 visas needed around Latin America. Without a doubt, the Colombians would have the most trouble with the visas. In a competition where time is of the essence, one could say that Colombians are put at a disadvantage because it takes longer to get through an airport. Yet all these issues will be considered within the rules of the competition so no racer would have a distinct advantage or disadvantage. [Thank you to our correspondent.]

So ten teams:
1. Brazil
2. Colombia: Married couple
3. Colombia: Homosexual couple
But strangely enough, the Colombian passport can travel pretty freely across Latin America:
Visa-free access
Argentina, Bahamas, Barbados, Bermuda, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Cuba (tourist card required), Dominica, Ecuador (police clearance required), Honduras, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, St Kitts and Nevis, St Vincent and the Grenadines, Trinidad and Tobago, Turks and Caicos Is, Uruguay, Venezuela (if travelling by air)
Race countries that require visas for Colombians
Mexico, Dominican Republic
