Agreed. Eight countries means no Paraguay. It was a well-researched hoax though. Too bad they didn't follow through.

We can also now fill in Phil's flight from the Seychelles to Dubai on 12 Dec:
EK 708 to Dubai: 0145-0615
EK 342 to Kuala Lumpur: 1030-2125
MH 1194 to Penang: 2320-0010 (13 Dec)

With 13 Dec being his stand-up day, and the 14 being the race day.

This also means that the Seychelles leg took place on the 11th. If it had ended on the 10th Phil would have been able to get to Penang one day earlier using:
HM 61 to Johannesburg: 0810-1125
SQ 479 to Singapore: 1330-0600 (12 Dec)
MI 352 to Penang: 0805-0930

Working backwards, teams from Paris on 10 Dec would have taken:
HM 7 to Mahe: 1930-0805 (11 Dec)

Which SOLIDLY gives us Phil's ZIGZAG route!! :jumpy:

Good work everybody!!

While the teams could have easily got to the Seychelles from Paris on the evening of the 10th (HM 7: 1930-0805), Phil would have had a much harder time the night before. Assuming that he's flying out of Paris where the World War I battlefields are, Phil would probably have had to do this:
QR 20 to Doha: 1505-2325
QR 702 to Mahe: 0045-0640
Which explains why it takes forever to get there.

I'm pretty certain that there are two legs in the Shanghai area. Too much time.

An extra leg should probably apply to Europe as well. The Bariloche leg takes place on 3 Dec. Assuming Phil can't make it out of Argentina that night, he'd be travelling on the 4th and doing his standups latest by the 5th in Germany. Make the 6th the Germany race day, 7th his standup in France and the 8th the France race day, Phil should still be able to fly out that evening direct to the Seychelles. He doesn't do that.

Looks like a 12-leg race, folks.

Leg One: Valparaiso
Leg Two: Puerto Montt, Puerto Varas
Leg Three: Bariloche
Leg Four: Germany
Leg Five: Germany/France
Leg Six: France
Leg Seven: Seychelles
Leg Eight: Penang
Leg Nine: Singapore
Leg Ten: Shanghai
Leg Eleven: Shanghai
Leg Twelve: San Francisco

ZBC Company:
Might be tbc

Are we sure all the battlefields would be close to Paris?? I was thinking Brussels could be closer to some of them...
