--- Quote from: CBS Press release ---Teams will be tested early and often and met with a new penalty called the “Hazard,” which will impact one Team’s future on the Race right from the starting line.

Even though we heard nothing about the future of the Hazard in the first episode, surely these quotes would imply that we haven't seen the last of it in this season..

Unless I missed something, I wonder what the difference is, between the Hazard and Speed Bump? They seem to be basically the same thing, an extra task that only one team has to do.

Exactly! I was like   :duno:  when they showed Hazard.  They should have named it "Automatic Speed Bump"!!!

Mug Costanza:
I would've been okay with it if there was an extra task they would have to do for the first 3 legs or something, not just the first one.

And what was the point of even having the extra task on a non-elimination leg?!

theschnauzers:
Well, the teams didn't know it was an NEL; and except for the grandparents, the other teams won't know about the double elimination apparently until they opened the first clue for the second leg.

It's possible we might see a hazard again in the Race this season, but my guess is that we won't.  The show tends to test something new for only one leg in the Race where it's introduced, so they can adjust it if it doesn't work they way they thought it would.
