If Head To Head was introduced several seasons earlier, I thought Dave & Connor would struggled because he think he is old

Just saw this, but... BINGO. TAR shouldn't have to rely on this mini-competition a few times through the course of the race in order to see which team gets eliminated. I'd like to see someone interject this into the middle of the leg for once (and maybe as a trial?). I want to see what happens when someone gets last place in this, and watch how they try to battle from adversity with a few more tasks ahead of them.

Basically, it should be a team effort to get to the end of the leg. Not just the work of one person.

Not the Head to Head's fault then.

I don't mind seeing the H2H at the end of the US Leg, but I think it's time to change it up. I don't want to keep seeing it at the end of the leg! Put in between a Roadblock or Detour for instance!

Canada does it much better. I don't watch the Israeli version, so I can't comment on how well the Double Battle works!

I watched Hamerotz la million and discovered most double battle tasks are strategy or puzzle tasks rather than sport-related ones

I think Canada do it better than US, they put it not at the end of the legs, so teams can have change to recover
