DISCUSSION of TAR 33 SUSPENSION DUE TO COVID (may contain location spoilers)
Genius:
1. Assuming all the remaining 8 or 9 teams can return...
Maybe they could do it like how TAR China does it with celebrities. They film for a few days (2 consecutive legs in the same country or i neighboring countries), then they go on a break for 2 or 3 weeks before returning for the next 2 legs. Edit the legs so they still appear continuous.
2. Redo TAR33 from the start, and invite all teams that cannot participate in TAR33 for a future season. If not, they get some sort of compensation.
To be honest, I am surprised that this season was even given the go-ahead a few weeks ago. (I mean, I know the filming date was planned months ago, but I would assume the producers would have pulled the plug on this about 2 to 3 weeks earlier, and postpone everything till July perhaps.)

Just before the race got halted production, the race route for TAR 33 is supposedly starting at United Kingdom 🇬🇧 (England 🏴 and Scotland 🏴) - Sweden 🇸🇪 - Spain 🇪🇸 - South Africa 🇿🇦 - Mozambique 🇲🇿 - Thailand 🇹🇭 - Indonesia 🇮🇩 - Australia 🇦🇺 - Japan 🇯🇵; a 5-continent race as planned. No new countries (TAR 21, 22, 23, 24 and 29), just some countries would be undervisited as they visited in TAR one to two times.
Whether the 33rd race would be going back to production by late March or early April, the route will be modified from the initial eastbound route in England and Scotland, and through into the westerly route from Oceania and to the penultimate leg in Europe.

This is false.
This is Claude posting opinions as facts again.

This year it’s the COVID that’s bad but any other February filming could run into a bad flu season and everyone ends up getting sick.

When the suspended production would take a little longer, hopefully the race could restart filming by late March or early April.

In theory, they only need to wait it out a few more weeks but I guess we’ll just have to see how it pans out irl.

1st case reported in Ecuador.
Honestly, it would have been extremely difficult to hit a country with 0 infections. A country with 0 infections is likely to be a country with not enough test kits and with less than desirable healthcare standards.
