Also, I don't even see how, if it just the 1st leg 1st place team that gets it, that is extra motivation, as that is only motivation for that team. Starting with the second episode, the only change is 9 teams are racing for $1M like always, and 1 for $2M. 90% stay the same.
At least they should make it so the winners of the most total legs of the final 3 gets the extra prize money chance. Then, the motivation is not so much the extra money, but the chance at extra money, and that motivation will continue throughout for all the top teams.

Unless they play with the greed. You know, something like "if the winner of the 1rst leg didn't reach the F3, the following team who arrived at the PitStop in that leg gain the right to win the 2 million prize, and so on if the previous teams are eliminated". This would change the whole strategy on the race, making more fierce the fight for stay in the race, for the use of the U-Turns or even for gaining the Fast Forwards.

I think there are several ways 2MIL could be split up as prize money. Phil just says "you will be playing for 2 million dollars", he doesn't say the winners will get that. As far as 2Mil being alot and increasing the cost of the show, with advertising revenues, product placements, website ads, etc I would think they easily can afford more prize money and make money on producing a 12 week series. It will be interesting to see how it works.

It's two million for the winners, if it was for anyone else that would ruin the prize of winning the race.
