TAR 24 Speculation and Discussion **of Spoilers**
Neobie:
Maybe I need to go read my Jules Verne again, but shouldn't it be 20 days for the racers if they start by flying over the date line?
couchracer:
I believe it matters whether you go east or west around the world. All I am saying.

That makes it much more likely that there was only one leg between Colombo and Rome, meaning Rome was likely Leg 7, and we have one team unaccounted for!
Also, Phil tweeted at the start of the race "12 shows, 21 days". Not sure if we're counting calendar days or perceived days?

Yes, if they travel westward they will experience 20 sunrises but if they go eastward they will see 22. But this only means that the days get longer or shorter, not that they get any more time. I.e. the number of hours is constant.
