Thats not true at all. Racers run to the gate to switch their seat assignments. If you get to the gate you can ask to be moved to the front regardless of the seat accomodation you have

With the route now going downwards, I am hoping the penultimate leg will be in Africa (Morocco/Senegal) before they head back to US. This will be the first time it will happen in TAR history.

... Otherwise I'm predicting Barcelona. They haven't done a leg there since Season 10, and it was nothing but a transfer point in Season 21.

So assuming Switzerland is 2 elim legs, our probable F5 is Tyler/Korey, Chris/Bret, Victor/Nicole, Leo/Jamal, and probably Becca/Floyd? (Could still be Colin/Christie or the Reillys as the last team).

I feel like they're gonna do one eastern europe and 2 western europe legs. Really getting Switzerland vibes from this season, but who can tell.
I must be psychic.

Ahh croatia. There's that one eastern europe leg I talked about *intuition OP*

Also, many teams (yes, including team Fun) have been spotted in and around Split and it's many forts and fortresses. There's also a travelocity roaming gnome, so pay attention to that factor.

Definitely feel like Spain might be the next country. This is a race that involves returning racers, and based on the abundance of overused countries we got in s18 and s24, I don't think this season will be an exception.
Either Spain or Portugal will take the cake, I feel. But there is that off chance for Africa or Latin America, so...

I guess Latin America is more likely in abundance of many Spanish-speaking countries (e.g., Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Peru) in that geographical region for two legs. Last season had Europe overload and wouldn't traverse across Western Europe or North Africa.

Confused how we know Colin and Christie are done for  bc couldn’t we say the same thing about the first Switzerland leg being non elim and second not?

^ There hasn't been a single season of TAR that has had the last non-elimination leg used before leg 8. They have however had multiple seasons that used the last non-elim on leg 8, but i'm thinking even that would be an elim leg this season. Rachel/Elissa were spotted on leg 8, and everyone else has been spotted in Croatia, so Colin/Christie must have been out on leg 7

Woo, I'm so happy Bret & Chris are still in it!!

There has to have been a U-Turn at this point and I wonder if Colin & Christie were targeted for their race prowess in Switzerland. No proof of this obviously just speculation!!!

True, that's my speculation as well.
Leg 7 could be non-elim or KOR given the fact that they stay in the same country next leg, though it may not be a norm but for logistic reason I think that makes more sense.
Then Leg 8 can get the 7th team out, with 6 left, and Leg 9 with 6th team out and 5 left. In this case, there is still a chance that Colin/Christie (or Rachel's team) can be still in.
And don't forget they can still pull a Final 4 in finale situation and eliminate the 4th team midway.. so many possibilities

Disclaimer: My gut does want Colin/Christie to stay please~~~~  :luvu:

Does one of Swiss legs is NEL? The other is F7 elimination that one of Colin/Christie or Rachlissa is out?

Yes I agree with you that it makes more sense the non elim would be the first leg or even KOR because of the same place. Doesn’t matter about past seasons each season is different and they will try to switch it up of course

I think Split is not the final destination for this leg
Given the fact that Split is one of the major transit city in southern europe
(Either by ship or by bus)
Teams can either stay in Croatia/go to other Slavic countries such as Montenegro,Bosnia

Cluebox sighted in Split. Guess that answers the question.

Split and then a ferry to Hvar would be super possible, too.

Back to spoiler discussion people!!!

I watched the instagram story that showed Bret & Chris racing in Croatia and it looks like the Travelocity Roaming Gnome makes a reappearance in that leg! Bret & Chris has their shirt off and seemed wet while running with the gnome so I wonder if they were headed for the pit stop? They clearly completed at least one task already!

I don't think that they would be shirtless and without their backpacks if they were heading to a pit stop.

Because we saw Becca & Floyd doing something different than Bret & Chris, I think both were doing different sides of the detour, which would explain the gnome. However, whether the detour is before or after the roadblock is unknown.

To get back on track, the last sightings we have for the F7 are:

In Split, Croatia:
Nicole/Victor
Becca/Floyd
Tyler/Korey
Bret/Chris

On the way to Split, Croatia:
Leo/Jamal

Switzerland, Leg 2:
Rachel/Elissa

Switzerland, Leg 1:
Colin/Christie

Is that correct?

So Colin/Christie out for sure than? Yikes this timeline

Not singling you out...

But GUYS! PLEASE STOP WITH THE CRYING! :groan:

If you want to go prematurely Mourn for your favorite team, do it in Bitch and Moan.

THIS THREAD IS FOR FACTS AND SPECULATION ON FACTS---ONLY.

And WE DO NOT KNOW WHO IS STILL THERE Other than by sightings  Leo/Jamal (at departure airport)--/ViCole/--Brett/Chris--/Tyler/Korey--Becca/Floyd Seen so far today (did I miss anyone while I am cleaning up this mess??)

There should be FIVE (or maybe even SIX teams if Switz 2 was a NEL)) left with at least one more NEL to come.

So we still have a POSSIBILITY of One more team anyway. Not a sure thing but...possible.

So please...go look for sightings and stop moaning here. I will move some posts THIS time, but from here on out I am just deleting, Time is precious right now, lets use it wisely!

Love you!  :2hearts:

And the last time they visited Croatia was S12. Oh I love the destination routes so far. Glad that Croatia's back with Split as the new leg sightings.  :conf:  :cheer:

Now that the picture of Becca & Floyd is larger you can see a gnome sitting in the lower right corner.

Could the pic of Becca and Floyd be a Roadblock? Only Floyd was dressed like that! If it was a detour, wouldn't Becca be dressed in costume too?
