TAR 27 Speculation and Discussion of **SPOILERS**
tennis33:
They would have to Brazil now because next year they would not be able to due to the Olympics
Alenaveda:
Remember that last year there was also the World Cup; so the moment to go on this time of the year had to be this one.

There would hope to have a Middle East leg, probably between legs 7 and 8, Israel could be the most likely country to visit and its being overlooked for the American Race, and no more countries outlying in the Arabian Peninsula. It will be a standard 4-continent race (N. America, S. America, Europe, Asia).
Also, it would have a second Brazilian leg and love to visit Belo Horizonte, just not as far from Rio.

"Once in your life you must fly over Rio! From the sky the city is simply sublime, with its green cliffs and islands against the blue of the Ocean. Helicopter tours last from 6 to 60 minutes and leave from Lagoa.
The basic helicopter tour fly over the lagoon, Ipanema and Copacabana beaches, the Sugarloaf and, of course, the statue of Christ the Redeemer. Longer trips also fly over Pedra da Gávea and Tijuca Forest.

Could there be a task involving looking out for their clue?

I made the same point in another thread earlier, but that's OK. It bears repeating. And for those wanting to rule out Africa, Rio and Sao Paulo IIRC have a direct flight to Johannesburg, South Africa, and I don't know of any reason why another visit there is out of the question.

It's very difficult to see where in the "Middle East" the mothership can go at the moment with MERS, and ISIS, both being serious problems for US travelers to contend with. Israel is a security issue, since Tel Aviv is the only way in or out by air; and things could heat up from Gaza or the West Bank at a moment's notice. If they're ever able to pull that off, I'd love to see it.
