Questions
Caelestor:
Is there more than one leg in Shanghai? Or is TAR actually not having a double leg in the penultimate country?
Are we sure there are 5 teams racing in Singapore?
catzoid:
Are the decoys given any incentive to act like they're racing seriously? "Winning team from among the three of you will get $1000" or something like that? I'm just wondering, because otherwise it seems too easy to tell the decoys from the Final Three.

They didn't do a double-leg in the penultimate country last season. But who knows what they'll do with that this time? I would speculate that there wouldn't be a double-leg in the 2 penultimate legs, but who knows?
And as for Shanghai, where is the info indicating that Shanghai was visited? ???
:jerry::
Will Shanghai be visited because of the 2010 Expo(bringing teams to the Expo location)?
Could there be a stop in Vancouver because of the olympics? (Shanghai-->Vancouver-->San Fran)
(or will Season 17 visit here AFTER the olympics like Season 14 Beijing?)

I get the feeling that the powers that be at TAR try to avoid anything on legs that might indicate just when the race was run. Sort of trying to keep it timeless and not having the viewers react "Wow, they filmed that 4 months ago!" So, no, I doubt if they will visit the Shanghai 2010 Expo. I had no idea that Shanghai was having an 2010 Expo. I see it doesn't open until May. The only way I see them going there is if the Chinese government paid to have them come to Shanghai and do something at the unopened fair grounds.
As for Vancouver, we already know they went from Shanghai to San Francisco this season, so no side trip to Vancouver. I think Vancouver is quite likely sometime in the next 2 or 3 seasons. They like to go to past Olympic venues.
