Pondering the one page write up in TV Guide, I think the author has compressed three days into two days. The 4PM and 5PM entries in the "diary" I think are from day 3 in Brotas, Brazil and not in Sao Paulo. The second day in Sao Paulo probably ends with a sleep over in the stadium after locating clues which give them their departure times on the bus to Brotas the next day. Phil does not usually talk to the teams until they reach the mat at the end of the episode. Just from the looks on the teams faces I think that the Double D's, the Hippies, and the two handsome ones are on the first bus out which means they were the first teams to locate clues at the stadium.
Lisa and Joni probably were the ones having trouble locating the clue box on the Viaduto Santa Ifigeniaq and then had trouble plutting the motor bike together and then finally finding the last clue at the stadium. They are the only ones giving us a "confessional" which usually occurs at the sleep over spot at the end of the second day. This all seems to add up to the remark that the race "was a lot harder then we thought it would be" and fits in with Phil's remarks.
If the pattern follows in the first episode (two hour) of TAR9, then there will only be one Detour which we now know is the Motorhead or Rotorhead. In all previous first episides there has only been one Detour and no Roadblocks. In the first four TAR's there also was a Fast Forward in the first episode, but not after TAR5. So that means that on the third day in Brotas all tasks will be team tasks.
The usual scenario for the first episode is to have the teams go through a lot of travelling, using different modes of transportation, getting familiar with each other, sleepingout in the open, and learning of the joys and pitfals of travel in a foreign country with not knowing the language, etc. etc. The harder tasks seem to start in episode two.
