I think it was meant for a true double U-Turn, so that two teams were racing neck and neck like Brooke & Claire vs. Chad and Stephanie
NoluckBoston:
Well it might have given Justin and Jennifer hope. I cant imagine Bill and Cathi being able to do the other task quickly. If there were not straggler, then Peach you are right.

Maybe they set up W-turn at 5th leg and 5th leg changed to Thailand so they had to move W-turn to Malawi

This is probably one of the worst uses of Express Pass ever! And on top of that, Ernie and Cindy knowing that Andy and Tommy were so close behind them, didn't even use the U-turn to slow them down. Ridiculous.
mswood:
I think ANdy & Tommy would have survived a U-Turn here, based on their lead. But for teams #4 to 7 yeah a U-Turn would have killed them.
THis is getting to be a habit with production. U-Turns shouldn't be at the end of a leg.
Take All Stars, now of course we all knew who was going to last for the final three (and win for that matter), but that Macau leg, where Eric & Danielle start over thirty minutes after everyone, get Yielded, and still manage to get to the Matt in 2nd place before they have to wait out a 30 minute penalty from the last leg. HAving the Yield at the beginning gives the editors this great build, this race internal of the larger race.
Putting crap at the end with little chance to overcome, is just really, really wrong.
