Superfans are less likely to make big moves like U-turning other teams because they don't want to upset the fans, they are able to anticipate everything that's about to happen so there are fewer genuinely surprised reactions to the different twists of the race, and they are predictably predictable. That's good for them as far as their odds of winning, but cautious and sensible superfans are more likely to talk about memorable moments by others on the race than make their own, and will probably be preoccupied with trying to make it onto the next all stars season.

Sounds like Dan and Jordan... who were always talking about all the strategic moves they won't make. :lol:

What can we expect?
1. Another starting line task, as I can understand the need to make it more interesting than just have teams drive from the starting line to LAX.
2. Fewer first-time visits to countries, as season 19 had quite a few.

Well of the three countries we know for sure, only one is new.. But I agree, we probably won't see them visit as many as last season.

I hope we have at least another two new countries..for a total of 3. Maybe one in Europe and another in Asia.
