I'll play devil's advocate: I think the first two episodes are one leg. At the Pit Stop, Phil said to each of the teams "You're the Xth team to arrive", rather than "You're team number X", which we have all taken to mean that the leg is over. If I'm remembering correctly, the mid-point of the Beijing double-leg in TAR 14 was also explicitly called a Pit Stop, which it was not. Phil also told the teams that they were still racing. I'm probably not forming as coherent an argument as I would like, seeing as how I'm very tired from all the excitement, but just remember that just because Phil says something is a Pit Stop doesn't mean it is one! (Amazing Race Asia has done this numerous times.)
