Phil on The View July 9, 2012:

"We are going into our 21st season.  (applause)
 
At the very beginning, when I intro... when I talk to the teams, I tell them about something that has never ever happened before, because we are always trying to shock them, and I tell them about something that is really exciting, and I can promise you that it will motivate them like they have never been motivated before."

Speculation...
Something that has never ever happened before: a quadruple U-Turn - lets call it the WW-Turn  :lol3:
Something that provides extra motivation: the team that finishes first wins $2 million.   :hoot:

Hmm....

"I tell them about something that is really exciting, and I can promise you that it will motivate them like they have never been motivated before"

I liked the TARAus must-vote u-turn, which hasn't happened in the US version, but I don't think teams would call it "exciting."

I am wondering if maybe there is some incentive for finishing higher in the rankings on each leg?  When I think of people not being really motivated, I think of teams content to repeatedly finish in the middle of the pack, or "not last."  Maybe teams could get a little bonus money for the next leg if they place well?

Another twist which could motivate everyone: winning something like a "get out of jail free card." Unlike an Express Pass which is used to skip a task, or a Salvage Pass which allowed a TARAus team to keep another team in the game, this pass could be used by a team at the at the pit-stop to avoid their own elimination.

David:
I think the Salvage Pass could be changed to: "Keep it and choose any EL LEG until leg 08/09 to make it NEL and save the team". Not that ridiculous thing made in TAR:Aus2 I didn't like it...

chill_sd:
The way he talked about "motivation" my first thought was the same as one of WP's - More prize money for the winning team, or maybe an extra prize like an around-the-world trip in luxury accommodations in addition to the $1 million.

Or similar to what boston_jen said, maybe a prize for finishing in the top three every leg or something like that.

Gamewise, I can't think of anything really "exciting" except maybe an express pass on each of the first five legs.

The only reason why WRP would not choose it is because of all of the money put in to making the Speed bumps and the NEL switching.

Peach, I can't watch the video. Could you get another one??
