eta Which is interesting, since the RB is also at Lingotto. It leads me to believe that one of the two 'paired' tasks (the painting or the helicopter) isn't a Detour option, since if they both were it would be fairly imbalanced (unless the helicopter task was ridiculously hard).

The one question I've got right now is how the Museo d'ell automobile fits in. Maybe where they get their product-placed cars?

The title of the episode confirms it for me... also Phil's pre-show interview:  This season’s Racers will endure one of the most competitive courses ever, as they find themselves skydiving in Argentina, training with the Masai warriors in Tanzania, racing through Africa’s “Garden of Eden,” putting their taste buds to the test with one of Italy’s most popular cuisines and searching for King Ludwig’s quarters in the German castle that served as the inspiration for the castle in “Sleeping Beauty.”

now i know i might be WAY out of line but I'm SPECULATING that the helicopter task might be a FAST FORWARD
i know it seems ages since we last had a FF but i think this season will bring it back
but i have my reasons:

- we know Art and J.J. won Leg 3, and they might have a huge lead over the other teams
- we know from evidence that Art and J.J. win Leg 4
- if they arrive first in Italy, they might take the option of the FF, even if they screw it, the roadblock should be close to it (FF and RB at Lingotto)
- the place they are performing this helicopter task opposite a helipad looks quite small, and if it was the place of a Detour/Route Info/Roadblock, i wouldn't imagine all 8 teams performing the task in there
- if they won the fast forward it would explain their 1st place win in Italy and i would think if they didn't do it, other teams would beat them in the regular challenges

i AM confident with this speculation, but my only setback is that the FF seems kind of easy/crappy

please tell me what you think of this

I worked in a remote control helicopter shop and help repair the broken parts...

for ORDINARY people, to be able to control a helicopter, especially since the racers had a nervous feeling to keep stay in pace in the race, it's not that easy....

Especially when they have to land it on top of their friend's head...

Landing in the ground required a gently movement of your thumbs and you had to feel it, slowly down... you can't just boom drop and land,

Even in Japan, they had a remote control helicopter national competition where all helicopter experts battling each other getting their copper through several obstacles...

So if this task considered to be FF, i can back up the arguments...  :tup:
