yes, but do you realize that in the israeli format only ben gurion was visited?

and also, going to Israel will forcibly ban the racers from going to some Middle East countries and vice versa

Visiting Israel does not stop you from visiting countries that have not signed a peace treaty with Israel as long as you don't get your passport stamped...
--- Quote ---... There your luggage and person may be searched, and you will receive an entry stamp. Although this stamp does not present a problem when entering Jordan or Egypt, if you wish to visit Syria, Lebanon or any Arab country which has not signed a peace treaty with Israel, you should explicitly ask to get your Israeli entry and exit stamps on separate pieces of paper, not in your passport. Likewise, you should ask the Jordanian authorities to stamp your exit and entry from any crossing point connecting Jordan with the occupied West Bank or Israel on a separate sheet of paper as well.

(Kyoto, Nagoya - not sure if this is in Honshu :duno: - or Osaka)

Nagoya is in Honshu :tup:
If it were in Japan, I'd say it would have to be a sizable distance from Tokyo; a long transport ride (say, an overnight bus) gives Phil time to film stand-ups and fly out to Vietnam ahead of the racers.
Would this also mean that our Phil sighting in Phnom Penh is a day ahead of the teams? Since he was at the Foreign Correspondents Club doing something leisurely (I assume); with teams breathing down his neck I doubt he would have time to stop for a drink (unless the Pit Stop was there).

there has been a Phil sighting? I missed it!! who saw him? where is the post? :duno:

The two exceptions in TAR 14 were Stechelberg to Vienna (~430 mil),
--- End quote ---
Neobie,
Wasn't it
1) Stechelberg to Zurich by taxi
2) Zurich to Munich by air
3) Munich to Salzberg by car
????????????

Thinking about the first leg...
Perhaps the task at the starting line was designed to delay the teams and give Phil a head start getting to Tokyo so he could do stand-ups before the teams arrive?
I don't believe Chateau saw Phil at LAX - so maybe he left on Korean Air KE 2 at 11:40 and the teams were held back long enough so they could only get AA 169 at 12:45 or UA 891 at 13:13.
Not sure if the timing works for this. :duno:
