My thought: Why would Paul & Steve Yield Michelle and Jo instead of Joseph and Grace after the conflicts of last episode? :duno:

--- End quote ---

Because Paul would rather play the strategic game and Yield a STRONG team (maybe Michelle and Jo) instead of putting the Yield to waste and Yielding a team you don't like? Knowing Paul, he would probably go with the strategic option, plus Michelle and Jo are probably right behind them as they are the 1st and 2nd teams starting the leg

how would it make any sense to yield a team that isn't one of the two teams that are 4 hours behind? is a first place prize that much more important than having a say in who gets eliminated?

--- End quote ---

Not just the prize, being first to depart on the next leg is a big thing. they can get a on an earlier flight alone and make a bigger lead.

SoYoung:
i am so happy there will be "All about Michelle and Jo " next episode. the yield, the Paul/Steve vs Twins, the injury and hopefully the twins arriving first after all of these :conf: Making this a surprising episode :))

howie_2010:
If the steps Paul & Steve and Lucia & Emilia are seen running down are the pitstop, then it's at Istanbul University.

georgiapeach:
Nice one Howie!! :hearts: Okay...one location down!

We can't be sure that is the Pitstop though, but for sure a location.

And these caps have been all spliced out of order...But for sure caps 14, 19, 20, and 21 all take place after the Michelle injury because Jo is carrying both packs...so possibly that is on the way to the Pitstop? I was just looking at Topkapi Palace to see if there was a match for that long low bldg,lol.

Problem is, we aren't sure of the order of tasks.

And not ure I see Lucy and Emilia? :duno:

If there are two teams 4 hours behind, why waste your Yield on them? They are no threat. I would use it on someone hard on my heels that I wanted to slow down...IF I used it all :lol:

Remember too that teams may not KNOW that the teams are 4 hours behind...in which case they would pick a team that they are 100% sure is behind them.
