I am not sure which distance you mean is 82 miles. As far as I can see the distance from where they picked up the water trucks to the souq is 66km (41 miles).  Then from the souq to the palace is 4km (2.5miles). Did it really take them 5 hours to cover those distances?

It's the second time this season (that I've noticed). At the end of Ep3 the voice-overs directing the teams to the pitstop didn't seem quite right; the only shot we got of a clue card was for K/R and it was the wheelbarrow card.

Well, I think that the clues they show onscreen are different that the ones the racers acculaty get, I've seen many times when team have a whole page to go off of!

No, this is the clue the racers get. But they often get an additional sheets of information. These are usually tucked into the same folder as the small clue is. And you can actually see parts of that sheet to the left in the picture above.
