THIS THREAD IS THE WORKZONE OF ALL THE LIVE SIGHTINGS.
This is where ALL the spoiler speculation/discussion of the TAR AUS 6 race goes, NOT in the LIVE thread. It is where we try to thrash out what the LIVE sightings mean.
(If the start is pre-announced LIVE, then we will use that thread for all sightings Start to Airport Departure.)
ALL Discussion of the LIVE Sightings and comments on them go here!
As always, per RFF's practices, we do not spoil the start location (if known) or any non-revealed teams until it is believed that the teams are safely underway. We would never want to put a team in jeopardy or cause them distress or interfere with the actual running of the race. Info on future legs may also occasionally be protected for those reasons. But if you have info to share beforehand, we would love to know, so please feel free to PM or email me! Spoilers are treasured!
This thread will be opened once the race is beginning. :tup:
:ghug:
-
What do we think the sighting means by Belgium?
Are they going to Belgium, or he/she things the gold-short team is from Belgium?
-
We have no idea. Not a leg pretty sure.
-
If there's no cameras, what this looks like is they're entering hotel sequester. Which means they're starting soon.
At least we already have visuals of a couple teams!
-
2 teams sighted were surrounded by crew and one of them even had TAR envelope in his hands so I do not think it's sequester. This looks like they started already.
-
It'll be an international race this time. The producers said in an article last year, "We're not doing Australia again". It'll be interesting to see if they took any pointers from Season 33 on how to do it safely. Not sure if the Australian version would have the budget for a private jet, but there's still plenty of steps they can take.

Okay, scratch that. https://twitter.com/spanner77/status/1499898862030704643
There was cameras! I was also nearly bowled over by one!
-
There's cameras on the ground in both team pics. Could easily be filming pre-race promo materials
For 2019 did we ever get confirmation if the teams sequestered in Seoul or Aus? ???
Given the location of the hotel I struggle to see how this isn't sequester. I would think as soon as they're done they'll fly straight out for a start.

Firstly, a MASSIVE THANK YOU to Jobelle (who brought this information to RFF) and to Heather (who posted this information on Instagram!)
Here's what I've been able to gather so far:
- I can count TEN teams in that IG picture, including one team member who appears to suffer from dwarfism, a Blue F/F Muslim Team, a POSSIBLE Aboriginal M/F Black Team & the two teams spoiled already in the Stamford Sydney Airport Hotel Pic (F/F Purple Team & M/M Gold Shorts team)
- Still unsure of the exact Starting Location (will ask for more info), but I think we can assume the Race started in Sydney, either yesterday (Friday March 4th), or today (Saturday March 5)
- Team's first clue sent them to the Hickson Road Reserve, directly across Sydney Harbour from the Sydney Opera House
- Still no word on whether Beau has been seen yet (or even if he is hosting the show!). I have asked Heather for more info and will update this post when/if more information comes to hand

All International Flight Departures From Sydney Airport - Friday March 4th & Saturday March 5th
Remember, keep in mind, teams may not have flown directly to their first destination from Sydney. They MAY have connected elsewhere (most likely either Melbourne or Brisbane)

Los Angeles seems to jump out to me, with four flights, including two just five minutes apart from each other... However, if teams did a few tasks during the day in Sydney, a late afternoon/evening flight could be a real possibility, opening up places like London/Honolulu/Singapore/Doha/Kuala Lumpur...
-
I see 3 FF, 3 MF and 4 MM, is it correct?
-
If you zoom in the photo and look behind the cameraman it looks like there might be an 11th team (and quite tall)

The black team appears to be MM (based off the video), so that would make it 4 FF, 4MM, and 2MF.
-
The fourth team in the video seems to be a MF. I'm counting 3 FF 3 MF and 4 MM
-
We don’t know if they will be using a specific plane like US 33 did. If they do thst all the flight info is useless. Let’s hope for not!!
-
I rewatched the video several times and this is what I got:
Left to right:
Team 1 - younger MF, asianaustralians?
Team 2 - Either MM or MF. I am not sure about gender of team member on the right. I thought it was male at first but on the video I think I see hair bun and boobs while they are running?
Team 3 - MM team, one team member had dwarfism.
Team 4 - another tricky one, it's either MF or FF I can not tell the gender of team member on the right. They seem older as they are clearly slower runners compared to other teams based on that video.
Team 5 - FF team, one is wearing hijab the other one is not wearing it, so at least one of them is muslim.
Team 6 - MF team.
Team 7 - blonde FF team.
Team 8 - MM team, afroaustralians.
Team 9 - FF team already sighted.
Team 10 - MM team already sighted.
-
They're in Chefchaouen, that city in Morocco where things are very, very blue.
I remember speculating TAR30 going there when they were in Tangier.

Team 2 (Blue) is MF.
Team 4 looks to be FF - two mature women.
-
This is pure speculation, but if they're in Chefchaouen then I think it's possible that the destination after could be in southern Spain like either in or south of Seville since Chefchaouen is right at the tip below Spain. It's at least worth keeping an eye out for that in the future.
-

I think fastest way to get there would be a layover to Doha, and then a flight to Casablanca or Rabat
-
Flying from Australia to Morocco takes almost a full day (23h at least) with connection via Doha, not to mention they have to do massive land transportation to Chefchaouen after touching down. It seems a too long jump for a leg to me.
-
Anything's possible. Seasons have made a huge overseas jump, like when Australia 3 went from Dubrovnik to Buenos Aires
-
So Melbourne or Perth will likely be the finish city since they weren’t visited last season.

Casablanca seems to have the much better connection via Doha over Rabat and Fes:
(https://i.imgur.com/3iGNqkD.png)
If they're on this route, teams will be in Doha now with a 8hr flight to Morocco. If they drive to Chefchaouen it's a 5hr trip. Could be a while before we see them again.
-
Dubai is also an option, but the Emirates flight to Casablanca arrives about 20 minutes before the Qatar flight so same timetable.
-
Does anyone but me think Morocco is not real?
Has Beau ever NOT been at the start?
Pics can be doctored...
???
-
Right on the money!! 😂🙊
What was our season’s Morocco? “See you in Broome!”
Were photos “tagged” in Broome? 👍🏽
Did your season go to Broome? 👎🏽

Peach has a point. His shadow looks a little off. If teams are spotted, then we'll know
@Jobelle - Beau said about this season, "See you in Lebanon". Apparently that's a running joke of his and probably shouldn't be taken seriously :P https://www.instagram.com/p/CVPjbUvpwN7/
P.S. Welcome to RFF! Always nice to see another racer here
-
But the Morocco info is from an outside source no?
-
Has Beau ever NOT been at the start?
We've only had two seasons from 10 and Eureka, so that's not enough to form a trend. Prior to the the 2019 season, we only had one season ever (TAR China 2) have a start outside its home country. So, the past two seasons have shown that anything is possible that we don't see on TAR US.
-
The other point to consider that this has to be one of the longest legs of travel ever (17,000+ kms). It would make sense in this instance for Beau to make a jump ahead of time.
-
Something that seems odd to me is that if Morocco is indeed the first country, why start in Sydney as opposed to Perth, where you can still connect in the Middle East but less distance overall :idgit

I'm surprised they went to Marrakech and still flying under the radar. We barely are on their tail.

-
It's not less than a week and we have more sightings than all of tAr33 combined..Nice work guys
-
It's nice to see a racer with dwarfism. Charla, Mark & Michael, Alex & Adam, that's pretty much it on any version :)
-
Chefchaouen and Marrakesh are quite far, over 7h drive.
Are we thinking these are our first two legs?
-
My guess.
Leg 1: Sydney → Marrakesh
Leg 2: Marrakesh → Chefchaouen
Beau was sent ahead and did his bits to camera for the first two legs until March 5 in Chefchaouen and returned to Marrakesh on March 6 when teams landed in Morocco.
-
It could also be like the OG Amazing Race premieres where there's a Part 1 and a Part 2 with an Overnight Rest in between.
Maybe that's why Part 1 (?) is in Marrakech at night. And then maybe they'll travel on staggered charter busses based on how they finished in Marrakech to Chefchaouen for the rest of the leg in the daytime.

Apparently friend sent OP from reddit pic of at least 7 teams. Can somebody with reddit account pls ask OP to share that pic with us pls? thank you.
-
Do we have all 4 FF teams together on that new pic posted in LS thread? I am sure there is woman in the hijab and grey haired woman on that pic.
I am also wondering... Was that photo taken during daylight in the building with no roof or is that artificial light?

I don't see the blondes.
Of the pics and vids, I don't think we saw the blondes and Team 1 and Team 8 this leg but all of the 7 other teams we did see.
-
I think we can confirm that there are two legs in Morroco
-
OP said this was taken in the morning so I assume they moved onto Leg 2.
https://imgur.com/a/pmNIQ43
I believe there are 6 teams in this photo. It's possible team 2 or 8 is in here too.
I don't think the blondes or Team 1 are in here.

Leg 1 was night leg and Leg 2 was morning leg, do I understand it correctly? So all these 5 teams captured on the photo made it to Leg 2?
-
Wouldn’t be surprised if those teams are setting off for the second leg, possibly heading to Chefchouhen. Also, that team in the top left looks like the blondes more than Team 9…I see blonde hair.
I also see footage of Team 2 in the videos provided - blonde M and black haired F as I suspected. And the older team Team 4 definitely looks like a FF.

Team 9 has one member with lighter hair. If those are the blondes, they are the darkest blondes I've ever seen.
Team 2, I thought they were MM. :duno:

Team 2 looked more MF to me, have a look at the third video in the Imgur link and when they start running in the start-line Instagram video we have. Could be wrong though.
Still think the body shape matches Team 7 more than Team 9 in the high angle shot, but again not conclusive enough clearly.
I also think we have missed Team 8 in that shot. They appear to be behind the Muslim FF team (Team 5) in the shot. One in front of the other...
Think the OP was right about there being 7 teams in shot. We are missing Team 1, 2 and either 7 or 9.
-
So what gender combinations do we have this season?
-
I think team originally marked as 10 in that picture is actually team 9.
Team 9? is definitely not team 9 though. I think it may be blondes... Just different lighting made their hair looks brighter/darker. Like there is one clear blonde women... And only team which have blonde women in it are blondes tbh.
-
So what gender combinations do we have this season?
4 FF - 3 MM - 3 MF
-
I am confused... Did 2nd leg happen today or yesterday? Because new post in the LS thread is suggesting today but then there is that photo of 6 or idk how many teams which I thought was 2nd leg and it was taken yesterday morning I believe.

10 hours ago was the FB post so they probably took a while to travel there?

Thank you for clarification. I just needed to be sure that old FF team made Leg 2, lol. I wonder if there was NEL in the 1st leg? because they really seemed like obvious 1st boot based on that starting line video.
-
The team standing beside the mat in Chefchaouen - could be either waiting out a penalty or checked in first and hanging around to issue the Salvage/Sabotage? ???
-

I think it might be the latter! Typically penalties have the team sitting on the side from Beau but this team is positioned on the same place with Beau and the greeter standing up.
-
I think so too. The Salvage & Sabotage is an excellent replacement for the Speed Bump, I hope they'd bring it back. Preferably without the First Class Pass, though (maybe not if this is a normal length season)
-
Only if the salvage is a real salvage. Having an extra person added to your team for a day can be helpful, yes but it could also throw the team dynamic altogether because you suddenly have a stranger to bring along wherever you go. If you’re naturally a hospitable and empathetic person you’re constantly gauging how they’re going and that’s just mentally exhausting. And the stranger isn’t even allowed to answer all the questions or swim out to the ocean for you. If the salvage is consistent throughout the season and the sabotage is more than carrying a stuffed kangaroo around then yes.
Maybe if 1 salvage and 1 sabotage applied for the whole season rather than the variety to make it fair.

What team is that? I don't recognize them
-
One is dark-haired (could be wearing a hat), one is blond. I'm thinking #4 due to the clear height difference.
-
In Athens now. I see the team with the dwarf racer is there (#3) and the blond team (#7). Not sure of the others, but the best view we've gotten yet of some of their faces.
Thank you arthur's headphones! And welcome to RFF!

2 teams asking cab driver something...
1st one looks like MM so only option is #10 and 2nd team is #2 I guess?
-
So if I have it right, it looks like Team 9 or 10 is out first?
All other teams seem accounted for moving on to Leg 2 or Leg 3 right?
-
I hate to put the cat among the pigeons, but I've just gone back to look at the 'starting line' video in Sydney with 10 teams. And I just cannot figure out for the life of me who the pink team (that looks like F/F) are who are on the right in the photo of two teams talking to the cab driver at the Technopolis. I also cannot figure out who the MF team is in the third picture - the woman looks slightly older than the man possibly...where are they at the 'starting line'? Very confused! Starting to think something is afoot...
I can easily spot Team 3 and Team 7 in the first picture, but the second and third have really confused me. Even the MM in the taxi shot on the left doesn't really look like Team 10 from afar, but they definitely look MM...

They both have brown hair, could it be team #9?
And the other team that we think is an M/M in the taxi shot, I think the one of the left is a girl, so maybe team #2? (If it's a M/M one of them has no hair on it's chin)

Dunno, the Chefchaouen leg seems to have run later than what I would have anticipated. Any reason why the overhead shot of teams in Marrakesh wasn't for a HOO departure in Leg 1?

I thought the physique of the pink team was MF and it looked like Team 1 (or best fit Team 1). The MF team in the 3rd pic has a height difference and it matches Team 2 the best.
The other team hailing the cab is Team 10 I believe due to the beanie has a white tag and it matches the outfit of Team 10 in Leg 1.
-
They just filmed in Athens last night according to the witness and now they're in Santorini, could it be the same leg? A KOR is unlikely since if it was a Salvage & Sabotage we saw in the second Morocco leg, that signals Leg 2 was a NEL.

Could be like Trinidad and Tobago where they did a challenge to get plane tickets.

With clearer pics I don't think I can see the F/F team in pink on the line-up either. Same with the clear M/F seen in Athens. With two teams unable to be placed I'm starting to wonder if they did a Hamerotz split start and that's why Beau wasn't around in Sydney...
We do have a decent break between our Marrakech and Chefchaouen leg, not impossible to host a second half of leg 1 ???
-
Stowaway team maybe? These ladies were not at the starting line in Sydney for sure.
This is 5th FF team...
Like I am super confused lol.

I'm starting to think it may have been a split Starting Line like HaMerotz LaMillion as well... some of these sightings are of teams we absolutely did not see at the Starting Line we witnessed. Plus it checks out with Beau not being present at the Starting Line too.
It could be Stowaways again but that received such a negative reception that even the producers in some interviews talked about how they regret doing that twist so I don't see them doing it again. So only thing I can think of is two Starting Lines. :duno:
Australia loves having many many episodes of their Reality TV shows. I was a bit suspicious when we only saw 10 teams on this season so maybe this is their way of upping the episode count without adding Stowaways + a huuuge amount of non-eliminations. But then that would also mean we have 20 teams this season. So after a hypothetical split start in episodes 1 and 2, we'd have 18 teams in episode 3. :groan: Which I just cannot imagine happening either... but who knows? Otherwise I have no idea.
-
Aren't there some covid restrictions currently in place in Australia? Maybe few teams just could not travel to Sydney due to these restrictions so they started from their province.
-
Everyone in Aus can travel to Sydney now, there's no restrictions at all (https://www.nsw.gov.au/covid-19/travel-restrictions/interstate-travel-rules).
-
I wish tar Australia does the rock challenge since they are in Greece....tbh the rock challenge had a setting similar to that of tar Australia 5 pit stop
-
I no longer do assumptions coz am 99 percent wrong all the time..but I feel the start line without beau was strange and the new ff team makes it more suspicious
-
Maybe I'm missing something, but why do nobody think the two brunettes with pink coat could be our team #9?
We don't even have a clear face pic of team #9... we saw them before the race started.
Is it because the hair is different?

They have different body types. Team 9 is plus size while this new sighted FF team is skinny looking. They are definitely two different teams.
-
Is this current season really 2 separate races of 11 teams, which well merge into 1 race at some point?? :o
That's what I've read on Discord, came over here to check
-
Australian formats tend to have a lot of episodes, Survivor has 20+, last TAR season had 24... no chance they can hace that much with a 11 team cast.
Another chance is that whenever a team is eliminated, a new one is being brought in and always are 11 teams competing....
-

Could be. That's what the Israeli TAR did for a couple seasons. 2 groups of 7 teams ran separate first legs, the last in each were eliminated. They merged from then on.
-
I think they would have already merged, the pink F/F team is in the same Athens shot as the blondes and M/M team with the shorter man.
I also can't find anywhere on the original line up the Asian male that's seen in Santorini. Something weird is definitely going on (again).
-
Again, maybe i'm on an island here but i feel like we don't have clear enough pictures of anyone yet (maybe beside team #10, and like the team with the smaller man) that we can rule out teams as new teams.

You say they are two different body types, but on this picture of the pink F/F team, there is one racer we don't ever see their body, and the other one is in a weird angle.
Maybe there are two different starting line, and it's another team who we never say yet.. but I just feel like we don't have enough info/pics yet.
Maybe we should create a new page with pics and screenshots (of those Morocco video) to have a better look and compare everything we have? (I suck with technology so I don't volunteer lol)
-
The whole timeline of AmazingRace is full of greece, Phil is talking greece on twitter, the contestants are supposedly in greece ..It is like the Greek have taken over tar .so it's difficult to track racers
-
It's almost 2weeks in ...if it was Tar USA ,filming would b wrapping next week or so , but I feel that since its tar Australia, we expect it to have 3weeks more coz it does 20 episodes now days . :ghug: :carryon:
-
Remember the new T-Junction twist they advertised last season and then it never actually showed up? I suspect it was meant to be on the leg with the Survivor-style endurance Roadblock, but Shane & Deb's medevac messed up the plan, since it needs an even number of teams.
Maybe they'll attempt that again this year.
-
Australian formats tend to have a lot of episodes, Survivor has 20+, last TAR season had 24... no chance they can hace that much with a 11 team cast.
Another chance is that whenever a team is eliminated, a new one is being brought in and always are 11 teams competing....
The thing is that TARAUS5 had 24 episodes only because of its all-domestic route; all the other seasons of the Australian version were either half that length or even shorter.
-
It's the Israeli version with legs long enough to last 2-4 episodes. Australian TAR's always been standard length except for last year.
As for sightings, I tried. Nothing new since Santorini :(
-
Apples to oranges since haMerotz has never done an all-domestic route; incidentally, the lengthiest TARCAN season did go abroad.
As for TARAUS6, they might now be racing in the boondocks of a sparsely populated nation.
-
I think it’s safe to say that we’ve lost them.
-
Filming has been disrupted due an outbreak of COVID cases amongst the crew, including Beau.

With Izmir so close to Santorini, I guess they've been sitting in a hotel for the past week waiting for Scottie to fly in from LA :duno:

I agree with Oval here, think this is logical. The last time we saw them was a sighting Saturday night on March 14.
Scott Tweedie was in Los Angeles to host at Australia House in SXSW, which was held on March 13 to 16.
He was seen in a photo taken on the evening of the 16th. That photo of him in Izmir was posted on the evening of the 19th. That's enough time for him to fly and get there.
Makes sense for production to run into this problem, took a few days to handle it, and considering how the article emphasizes "few cases", I think it's safe to say that it's a small number of compromised crew members which unfortunately included Beau.
So right now the rest of the production and the teams would be in Izmir along with Scott. We might even get two or three legs in Turkey at this rate - it would buy us some time for Beau and the other production members to recover in Greece without compromising the rest of the production.
Hope they finish and stay safe! This is already certainly a season to look out for to say the least.
-
Beau (and other production crew) might've even caught Deltacron.

I doubt Leg 4 or 5 in Turkey started yet. i think Scott is in Turkey to get situated before teams crash the party, just like how Beau gets ahead
If teams quarantined in Santorini, they were really lucky to spend a week there.
-
I feel like the 10 statement was so confident meaning it came after they filmed a Scott episode..They could be in leg 6 or 7 by now , heading into another country.. Can some one pull up a bio of Scott.. I think beau will catch up next country...His last instagram story was a day ago..i forgot to save it..he seemed happy on a private jet :jam:
-
Who is this Scott you're all mentioning?

Who is this Scott you're all mentioning?
Scott Tweedie. He's the replacement host as Beau Ryan is in quarantine due to COVID exposure.

Okay guys. Thanks for the info but this thread is FOR LIVE SITTINGS DISCUSSION...NOT COVID.
Moving on....
-
So are they filming this or is the whole cast and crew in the quarantine or did they shut down production completely?
No sightings make me nervous.

Unless they shut down again, they are still filming as far as we know.
Turkey is a place where we usually don't get many sightings in the first place.

If they went there, that's probably the reason why we haven't seen any sightings in a while, due to Instagram, Facebook, Twitter etc. is blocked in Russia.
-
They went to Russia once before, but the optics won't be so good for the show if they went there now. Not so sure about that.
-
Why hasn't the Russian talk gone away?Are u saying there is a possibility??? :didimiss: ,

Not sure if this should count as a live spoiler or not, but Beau recently made this Instagram post showing several pictures of himself and another television producer with some of the pictures being taken at an airport with them wearing backpacks and masks.
The tagged location is Lebanon.

The first picture has an Alliance Airlines plane, so some of these pictures might be from last season. The second and third might be from Morocco. Also, Lebanon is the code word for anywhere on the racecourse, so he might have switched back with Scott.
-
Has anybody considered that team #1 might be the unidentified Pink F/F? At the starting line their outfits seem faintly pink and one of them has short hair like the Pink F/F
-
Seems Beau has this running joke of saying somewhere that's not on the course. He said "see you in Lebanon" last year when the season was announced. According to Jobelle, before their season it was "see you in Broome" (they never touched Western Australia)
-
Not necessarily since he did no such thing for TARAUS4.

It's actually a town in Ohio that's named Russia.
-
At least part of the route will be a surprise, but who the hell knows what leg we're on now :funny:
They're probably near the end by now. If they're in South America, they're likely edging back toward Australia. Keep an eye on Mexico or Canada/USA as a convenient penultimate leg for the connection.
-
There’s two weeks left of filming. So most likely around 6 teams left..
-

They asked teams to be free for "four to seven weeks (if you go on to win)" during applications. Today is officially Day 26.
We still have potentially three weeks to go assuming production's timeline has not been disrupted by the mini shutdown and production adheres to the application requirements.

Why is this Scott guy still hosting this? I thought he was only replacement for Beau during his quarantine (which should be already over I assume).
-

The implication is Beau is either still positive or quarantining to meet them in the country after Colombia. Or they just let Scott tag along for the rest of the season as an extra host.
-
So 22nd April would be the 49th day possible - TARAUS5 was roughly 39 days.
-
If they are in Columbia now, what is the chance of having penultimate in Argentina and Chile before a direct flight back to Sydney?
-
Do you think there was another country between Turkey and Colombia?
-
Close to zero chance of a nonstop flight from South America to Oceania given the precedent from AUSvsNZ where the first half of the finale was in California immediately after the Buenos Aires departure.
-
Tbf that was a different production company so who knows
-
Close to zero chance of a nonstop flight from South America to Oceania given the precedent from AUSvsNZ where the first half of the finale was in California immediately after the Buenos Aires departure.
But there are flights from South America to Australia? Definitely a viable option for them and something we should consider.
-
I have a feeling they are going to North America next!
Also: That super good picture of the team we have... we didn't have them on the starting line no?
I guess this really means we had 2 starting line, or that terrible twist from last year is back

There were previous to the pandemic, from Santiago de Chile. I don't know their current status.
-
There is another FF team on that new sighting. Amanda & Ashleigh 2.0 I would guess.
-
To me it looks like I see two already established teams:
-Team 1, the M/F in Cream
-Team 6, the M/F in Dark Orange
As well as two brand new teams:
-A M/F in Light Orange/Yellow
-A longhaired blonde and brunette F/F pair in Pink/Purple

I'm pretty sure we have at least 16 teams so 2 startlines with 10 teams each is possible. (Gamer's theory - they can elaborate)
-
We are at at least 15 teams now, lol.
Also I wonder if it was just coincidance that there were no more teams around or is this our F4? We will see I guess.

We know at least 6 teams were sighted in Colombia but not sure why those 4 were are together.
-
Ok this is just spec, but what if for the first few legs, there are two races at the same time?
This would explain why we got 2 different locations but from the same country.
Race A started with 10 teams (the one we saw) and their leg 1 is in Marrakesh
Race B started with also 10 teams, and their leg 1 was in Chefchaouen
Leg 2 for Race A is in Athens
Leg 2 for Race B is in Santorini
And then after a few legs (maybe leg 5) both 5 teams remaining are put together for the final part of the race.
-
The non-Sydney Starting Line would've been known by now, so no.
-
With 3 possible legs in Colombia could Bogotá be our merger leg?

I don't think 18 teams is feasible in one leg. I think they did 2 groups for a while but teams could be mixed and matched based on placement :duno:
Leg 1 -10 Part 1
Leg 2 - 10 Part 2
Leg 3 - 9 Part 1 - Mix of Group A and B
Leg 4 - 9 Part 2 and etc

Doesn’t that team in blue look like two older women? Just wondering if it could be the older FF (team 4) at the first start line?
It looks like two older women to me too
Honestly I would be SHOCKED if older FF from the Sydney starting line was still in this. They could barely run on that video. Even nuns from season 4 seemed more athletic. Logic tells me is't not them but you never know...
-
Posting my current guesses for this season's length + potential boot order following the Team numbers we used in the Contestants thread:
20th-19th: Team #8 (Sydney Starting Line) + Potential Team #20. All other teams were sighted after their respective starting legs.
I am going to assume that just like TAR Australia 5, we have 3 legs per "area" and at least one is a Non Elimination.
18th-17th: (Greece Elims) Any combo of Team #3, Team #5, Team #7, Team #10, Team #12, Team #18, and Team #19
16th-15th: (Turkey Elims) Any combo of Team #3, Team #5, Team #7, Team #10, Team #12, Team #18, and Team #19
14th-13th: (Colombia Elims) Any combo of Team #3, Team #5, Team #7, Team #10, Team #12, Team #18, Team #19, Team #1, Team #13, and Team #14
12th-11th: (Belize Elims) All teams currently at risk, pending future sightings.
With this assumption, we'd be currently on Leg 14 (Leg 13 Belize City, Leg 14 Caye Caulker, and we'd likely have at least 2-3 more countries on the route dependent on if they do the final 3 legs in Australia. What a season!

The height difference isn't there. These 2 individuals are similar in height while the ones at the start don't

The person on the left is bending forward…definitely taller than the woman on the right.

I think that we can'T say if it's really them or not...
The angle is weird, that person is bending forward, maybe the ground is uneven.
Like we don't know, we can't rule it out

What if the woman on the left just bent her body down as if she was doing something? her height looks tall to me.

Found pics on FB. Too bg to post. Caye Caulker, Belize. The detour was Twirl it or Twist it. Thanks to Shelley Kohagen. She posted videos of the detour too and there are some great close ups along with other photos. https://www.facebook.com/shelley.kohagen

I'm sure the Twerk It Detour's gonna look great on TV, lol. Lots of booty shaking.

What if this was one of the blondes and the older lady from Team 4? After the shutdown, their partners couldn't continue and they linked up. :duno:

Good thought. What if it is half of two teams that are on the sidelines waiting for their team mate to finish the task?
-
The lady on the right in that picture definitely looks older to me. I suppose it could just be shadows...? But I still think the body type and face is of a more mature woman.
Other than the height difference, which could just be explained by the person on the left crouching, the big difference is this team is wearing Blue and not the Grey-ish color our original older team 4 was wearing at their Starting Line we witnessed.
From what I can see, all other teams have kept with their original Starting colors, so it would be very strange if this was team 4 that they would change colors mid-way through.
So possibilities is it's:
-Not team 4
-Another team with an older member from the other Start Line
-The blondes in blue from the Start Line we saw and the shadows are just messing with the looks
-A hybrid team
I do think the hybrid team option is least likely, but let's not forget that TARAUS likes to do some crazy stuff sometimes. I wouldn't put it pass them to possibly create a hybrid team mid-way through. I think it's super unlikely... but not 100% impossible.
-
Just to say, I had been operating under the same impression as some others regarding Morocco-Greece-Turkey, which was that there was 2 legs in each with Group A and B competing in a leg in a different location and a team being eliminated each time...however, I notice now that in Athens at the Technopolis, Team 3 and 7 from Group A are in shot with Group 12 (the younger brunette FF team) who are from Group B...just wanted to highlight that!

Yeah the fact that we saw Group A and Group B together really makes me think they just merge at 18.

Can't believe new contestants are still popping up left and right.

Season 2 - Canada

I thought TAR Australia might complete the trio with Mexico someday.

https://www.instagram.com/tv/Cat19m9ADs_/?utm_medium=copy_link
I mean, the lady on the left of Team 9 in this video of the Group A startline (who we have never properly seen in photos thus far) does look like that lady in Merida, Mexico...you get a good look at her in the video and the clothes definitely fit the start line. Hair also looks similar. And in the shot of them in Caye Caulker, the lady on the left (again, out of shot mostly like the Sydney hotel photo of them) does look to have a similar hair colour as this woman. I still think this is Team 9 and Team 4 could still be the team in light blue in Caye Caulker or an older FF/MF team from Group B as fossil thinks. Sorry to put spanner in the works, I'm just not sure and tend to think this lady is from Team 9 from Group A...not a new team from Group B.

With teams in the Yucatán could the Western US be next? After all there were planned legs in the US for the original TARAU 5 route.

I agree with Kiwi. Definitely Team 9.
We can't say for sure on some of the teams so I think we need to be more patient.

Agreed! We are doing well, but some of it will take time, as we wait to uncover teams and look at initial promos. Do we have an idea of airdate yet?
Also - has anyone looked at how long they went quiet around Turkey? Do we have enough time between Turkey and Colombia for another 2-3 legs? Might have missed a country there?

Between Turkey 1 to Colombia 1 is about 9 to 10 days.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they went to somewhere colder in Europe during the Turkey-Colombia gap, especially since everywhere else on the route is more Mediterranean/tropical thus far

I would expect another setting than latin/spanish america for the next few legs.
Cuz that is like 3 countries in a row with Spanish as it's main language (I think for Belize also?)
So maybe Canada or Northeast USA
Would love for them to come to Quebec!

So I've been thinking, if the race was 24 legs, we would have 17 eliminations, 6 non-eliminations and a final 3.
If the race was 20 legs, we would have 17 eliminations, 3 non-eliminations and a final 3.
The race has to be at least halfway to finish by the end of the month so how many legs are in each country and how many eliminations have there been.
With that said, here are some possible theories based on number of legs:
A) 24 Legs
I think we are more than halfway if Morocco, Greece, Turkey and Colombia are at least 3 legs each.
Morocco (3), Greece (3), Turkey, (3) Colombia (3), Belize (2), Mexico (1+?)
B) 20 Legs
I think we are more than halfway if we have at least 2 legs in each country.
Morocco (2), Greece (2), Turkey, (2) Colombia (2), Belize (2), Mexico (1+?)
With that said, here are the top 4 possible theories I have based on number of eliminations:
A) Simplest Theory - 15 Legs and 13 Eliminations so far/20 Leg Race
3 legs each in Morocco, Greece and Turkey with 9 eliminations
11 teams in Colombia
3 legs in Colombia and 3 eliminations
Belize 1 is final 8 and non-elimination
Belize 2 is final 8
Mexico 1 is final 7
If Mexico 1 is non-elimination, 5 Legs Left and 4 eliminations left
If Mexico 1 is elimination, 5 Legs Left and 3 eliminations left and 1 non-elimination
B) Complicated Theory - 15 Legs and 12-14 Eliminations so far/20 Leg Race
3 legs each in Morocco, Greece and Turkey with 7-8 eliminations
12-13 teams in Colombia
3 legs in Colombia and 2-3 eliminations
Belize 1 is 9 to 10 teams
Belize 2 is 8 to 9 teams
Mexico 1 is 7 to 8 teams
If Mexico 1 is non-elimination, 5 Legs Left and 4-5 eliminations left (with a possible non-elimination)
If Mexico 1 is elimination, 5 Legs Left and 3-4 eliminations left (with a possible non-elimination)
C) Complicated Theory 2- 11 Legs and 9 to 11 Eliminations so far/20 Leg Race
2 legs each in Morocco, Greece and Turkey, Colombia with 7-8 eliminations
Belize 1 is 12 to 13 teams
Belize 2 is 11 to 12 teams
Mexico 1 is 10 to 11 teams
If Mexico 1 is non-elimination, 9 Legs Left and 7-8 eliminations left (with a possible non-elimination)
If Mexico 1 is elimination, 9 Legs Left and 6-7 eliminations left (with a possible non-elimination)
D) Complicated Theory 3- 15 Legs and 9 to 11 Eliminations so far/24 Leg Race
3 legs each in Morocco, Greece and Turkey, Colombia with 7-8 eliminations
Belize 1 is 12 to 13 teams
Belize 2 is 11 to 12 teams
Mexico 1 is 10 to 11 teams
If Mexico 1 is non-elimination, 9 Legs Left and 7-8 eliminations left (with a possible non-elimination)
If Mexico 1 is elimination, 9 Legs Left and 6-7 eliminations left (with a possible non-elimination)
Now there are other theories, like if some countries are 2 legs instead of 3 (or vice versa), but I'm thinking we have about 20 legs and they are going to wrap up soon to finish before the end of the month.
The only way I see a 24 leg race is if the first 4 countries have 3 legs each or 3 countries have 3 legs each. Even then, we would be around 13 to 14 legs and have 10 to 11 to go.

Team #9 sighted. Looks like a Roadblock.
From the second photo, looks like they have to count the number of papel picado of a certain color like TARAU 3's umbrella Detour.
-
So maybe Canada or Northeast USA
Would love for them to come to Quebec!
I highly doubt they’ll go the northeastern part of North America, if anything they’ll likely favor the western US and/or Canada.
-
Unless they want a cold-weather leg. Pretty much the whole route's been southerly places.

With that said, here are some possible theories based on number of legs:
A) 24 Legs
I think we are more than halfway if Morocco, Greece, Turkey and Colombia are at least 3 legs each.
Morocco (3), Greece (3), Turkey, (3) Colombia (3), Belize (2), Mexico (1+?)
B) 20 Legs
I think we are more than halfway if we have at least 2 legs in each country.
Morocco (2), Greece (2), Turkey, (2) Colombia (2), Belize (2), Mexico (1+?)
I think we might only have one Greece leg. I'm leaning more to it being merged with Turkey for "Mediterranean Week" or whatever.
We've got a significant gap between Turkey and Colombia so I think we missed a set of legs there. Should still be on track with the amount of legs you've got here though.
Merida being two legs throws out of whack the theory of 3 sets of legs per week as we've already got two Belize legs. Not sure what to make of it yet.
-
If that many teams are still racing, then there might be time to visit both the States as well as Canada while still fitting in the likes of New Zealand for the penultimate leg(s)/week.
-
Yeah, there are lot of legs remaining to be raced. I hope they will jump to Asia from Mexico. It should not be problem via connection in US I believe.

Do we have an SM activity evidence (posting or following other teams) which can confirm already eliminated teams? I was looking for the Instagram accounts of the newly identified teams but unfortunately it looks like almost all of them are private.

There is if you do look closely. There is an MF team and FF team that is for sure eliminated.

blondes and Francis & Angel?

Looking at the timeline, there is a huge gab between Turkey and Greece.
Sure there was the covid drama in there but I'm sure we are missing a leg in Greece somewhere
I'm expecting 2 or 3 legs per country.
Also, I would guess we are missing a country between Turkey and Colombia, probably somewhere in Europe?
Or we have direct flights from Colombia to Turkey?
-
They could've gone to "comparatively less touristy than Istanbul" places such as Ankara and/or Cappadocia a la Race Across the World 1 and TAR China, respectively.
-
If we can't find team #20, maybe they were from the other starting line and first eliminated.
-
If we can't find team #20, maybe they were from the other starting line and first eliminated.
And to make the number of teams 'fit', would it be possible to have a starting line elimination?
This way, within the first two episodes, we go from 20 to 16, then the merge?
(One team out at starting task and one at the end of the leg in Morocco?)

At the moment we're able to account all 9 teams on Group A surviving the first leg at the very least. Only the M/M team in black was not seen after.

Oh right, I forgot that picture taken from the top, but are we sure it's from leg 2? Could have been the continuation of the night leg 1?

The person who posted the initial sighting said they saw them until the Pit Stop, so the night market task was likely the final task of the leg.

I can 2nd that. The night market task and Pitstop were in the same area. There were people that did see the pitstop being filmed but no pics/vids.
Also, poster said pic from the top was in the morning, next day.
-
Ok then that confirms only 1 team out in the first leg!
Can't wait for that 18 teams leg lol
Another possibility is that maybe they reshuffled the teams after each group had their first leg, which would explain why teams from both group were seen racing together in Greece

That's what I said earlier. 18 teams in one leg seems like overkill so mix/matching teams and splitting them seems feasible.

Since teams are already back in Oz, could there have been a Double (or even Triple) Elimination in the Americas a la Season 19?
-

It's possible they are running the last few legs in AU. Possible, not confirmed, 4-5 teams left at this point
-
A triple elimination's never been done on TAR before, Big Brother has. If by chance that was the case, I wonder how it'd go over with the audience.
A season with a cast this large would be the time to try it.

How I see it (could be wrong)
Belize 2: Final 8
Mexico 1: Final 7
Mexico 2: Final 6
AU: Final 5 (Green MF, Pink MM, Red FF, Orange MF and TBD)
AU: Final 4
AU: Final 3

With what we know now, I think this is likely:
Colombia 1 (Bogota): Final 11, 11th place team eliminated (Mustached M + Short Haired F = all other teams accounted for later on)
Colombia 2 (Guatapé): Final 10, 10th place team eliminated or NEL (Asian M/F or Flick & Gabby)
Beau returns and rejoins the Race via Cartagena, Scott flies back to LA
Colombia 3 (Medellin or Cartagena): Final 9/10, 10th/9th place team eliminated or NEL (Asian M/F or Flick & Gabby)
My speculation of Colombia 3 existing is really just because of that Beau sighting and that journalist tweet. Also look at the hat of the camerawoman in one of our Caye Caulker sightings - she's wearing a Medellin hat!
(https://i.imgur.com/KoTtTfI.png)
Belize 1 (Belize City): Final 9, 9th place team eliminated (Asian M/F or Flick & Gabby)
Belize 2 (Belize City): Green M/F, Angel & Francis, Red F/F, Mori & Pako, Purple F/F Team all safe, Chelsea & Jamus/Older F/F Team/Blue M/F Team at risk
Belize 3 (?): Green M/F, Angel & Francis, Red F/F, Mori & Pako, Purple F/F Team all safe, Chelsea & Jamus/Older F/F Team/Blue M/F Team at risk
This is just pure speculation but if this is going to be a long season, we have a gap in filming between Belize 2 and Mexico 1. So I'm going to guess that we have THREE Belize legs.
Mexico 1 (Medellin): Green M/F, Angel & Francis, Red F/F, Mori & Pako, Purple F/F Team all safe
Mexico 2 (Medellin): Green M/F, Angel & Francis, Red F/F, Mori & Pako all safe, Purple F/F Team at risk
Mexico 3 (?): Green M/F, Angel & Francis, Red F/F, Mori & Pako all safe, Purple F/F Team at risk
My speculation of Mexico 3 is, again, our gap between sightings. We last saw them finish Mexico 2 almost 108 hours ago. I highly doubt they just went back to Australia if our next sighting was April 13.
WA 1 (Perth): Green M/F, Angel & Francis, Red F/F all safe, Mori & Pako and Purple F/F Team at risk
WA 2 (Fremantle):
WA 3 (Finale?):
Today is clearly not the finale. I think it's either an F3 NEL or F4 EL. Let's keep an eye out tomorrow if the Race does come to an end by then, since I think they'd want to finish before Easter Sunday :tup:
-
Also I think it's safe to say Chelsea & Jamus were eliminated and sent home at some point during the Central America stretch - a lot of private profiles still from our identified teams but her public Instagram for her business just posted this 13 hours ago:
kweenofcleaning
BOO! Im back 🙈 sorry I’ve been MIA — I had a very exciting opportunity come up and the universe made sure i didn’t turn it down. I returned to a number of people concerned and missing my daily cleaning stories hehe 😆🥰 I love that!!

now that the Aussie's have done thier thing and are almost through.. When will the Tar34 thread open?.. And are we expecting a Canadian race any time soon ? Since it usually used to film at end of April..and if so, where is the thread..thank u... The TarAus6 looks massive... Can't wait :bow:
-
Are we sure that orange team witness was referring to is "our" orange team (orange MF from Sydney SL)? Was gender specified by witness? It could be "red" team in reality as orange and red are really similar colors and we already know that red FF team made it back to Australia.

I think breaks are normal in between pitstops. We also have to account for travel from place to place.
Filming back to back to back would make people exhausted.

If this season has 24 episodes/24 legs just like last season did, then I think we probably are missing a country then. Along with that, I think that every country probably hosted three legs.
Australian reality TV likes to air multiple episodes of a show in a single week. With 24 episodes, they can therefore air this season three times a week and finish within 8-weeks. They can easily market and advertise these as "Morocco week" or "Greece week" or "Turkey week" etc. This was the schedule and marketing that last season had too, even with the named weeks (though they were much more arbitrary last season, this time they can at least name them by the country they're in for the week).
Legs 1-3: Morocco - Premiere Week
Legs 4-6: Greece Week
Legs 7-9: Turkey Week
Leg 10-12: Colombia Week
Legs 13-15: Belize Week
Legs 16-18: Mexico Week
Legs 19-21: Australia - Finale Week
The problem is that's only 21 episodes and leaves three legs unaccounted for. So the possibilities are:
-I'm wrong and there aren't 24 episodes/24 legs this season, maybe not even 21 either. They possibly didn't actually do Triple legs in each country and there's much less legs.
-Production originally organized 24 legs, but due to the COVID chaos mid-season, they fell behind schedule and contractually couldn't lengthen the season so therefore cut three legs, leaving us with just 21.
-There was possibly two legs fully in Australia to begin the season with the Split Starting Lines and eliminated two teams respectively before the other 18 teams flew to Morocco for leg 3. Then add an extra leg somewhere along the way (maybe a fourth Colombia leg since they went to so many places in the region, or even a single Los Angeles leg, or somewhere else).
-We missed an entire country where they had our missing three legs. Either pre-Turkey or post-Turkey there was ~10 days or so of complete silence where they may have went to a country with no sightings. Obviously the silence may have just been due to the temporary COVID shutdown, but articles online said they only shutdown for around ~48-72 hours from what I recall. So what happened during the other ~7 days?
-
My opinion is that we are missing a country between Turkey and Colombia
Maybe somewhere in Eurasia?
-
Seeing as Fremantle is a non-finale leg, the Finish Line could be in Melbourne or elsewhere in Victoria a la AUSvsNZ.
-
That clip of running to the Pit Stop again and again from Fremantle seems to be going a little viral on Twitter these past couple days, as "If you thought reality TV was real, watch this"

And it's a bit ridiculous that it's such a big deal - with how the show's edited where we have two shots of the clue and the team reading it spliced together, it's not surprising that they'd do multiple takes for the clue reading.
JK from TAR Asia 5 has commented on the video as well.

Going through social media activity (Instagram profiles are still protected but will likely open up when the show begins) and while there's a huge gap in our boot order, I think we can safely assume that at the start of the season, half of the teams from Group A are eliminated almost immediately.
Sam & Stuart, Reem & Crystal, Morgan & Lilli, Nara & Glennon, and Sam & Alex all followed each other at around the same time. All of these teams were home two days after that Scott sighting in Izmir happened. Assuming we had 3 Morocco, 3 Greece, and 1 Turkey leg by this point, it would mean that 6/7 of these legs are elimination legs (the sighting of the mysterious Team #19 in Morocco implies Leg 3 is an NEL with Salvage/Sabotage). This means that the first 6 boots are only one team from Group B due to the twist, and everyone else was Group A.
As for the midgame and endgame it's an even bigger blank, but I think it's highly possible that the 8 teams we saw in Caye Caulker really was our Final 8.

I agree that we most likely saw the final 8 in Caye Caulker. Gabi/Flick definitely didn't make it to Mexico. They were back running their coffee shop. Mori/Pako were eliminated before the finale for sure.
Between Turkey 2 and Belize (Caye Caulker), 6 eliminations had to take place to get to 8, if 6 eliminations already happened.
3 Morocco, 3 Greece, and 1 Turkey - 6 eliminations / 1 non-elimination
2 Turkey, 3 Colombia, 1 Belize - 6 eliminations
Between Caye Caulker and Finale - 5 eliminations
I think we could have 2 Belize legs before Caye Caulker or missed a country because I don't think they would do 6 straight eliminations.
It also seems likely for 20 legs (17 eliminations, 2 non-eliminations). I don't see how it could be 24 atm.
-
Mori/Pako were eliminated before the finale for sure.
Are Mori & Pako 4th place team eliminated in Fremantle then? Does this make red FF team of aunt & nephew our 3rd finalist?
-

3 legs were raced in Australia, right?
2nd to last leg - Perth - Mori & Pako last seen, most likely eliminated because of SM activity during Fremantle leg.
1st to last leg - Fremantle - red FF of aunt & nephew last seen.
last leg - Broome - green MF & orange MF confirmed to be finalists.
Unless there was F4/F3 NEL, it looks like Mori & Pako are our 5th place team and than there is one unknown team who made at least F4. I wonder who it can be.
-
So with the sighting and thoughts above, here is what the eliminations may look like:
1st 6 Eliminated
Group A: Sam & Stuart, Reem & Crystal, Morgan & Lilli, Nara & Glennon, and Sam & Alex
Group B:
Missing: 1
2nd 6 Eliminated
Group A: Kathy/Chace
Group B: Gabi/Flick
Missing: 4
Final 8:
Last Seen in Belize: Toni/Heath, Chelsea/Jamus, That Blue Team
Last Seen in Mexico: Lauren/Steph
Last Seen in Perth: Pako/Mori
Last Seen in Fremantle: Tiffany/Cynthia
Final 3: Kelly/Georgia, Francis/Angel and ?
Unknown: 2 Mystery Teams, Blond F/M?, Older FF Team, Flick/Josephine and Asian?? Team
-
Just a note:
With that picture of Chefchaouen that strongly suggested the return of first class pass.
It IS possible a team is not seen because they won the first class pass and have the leg off.
I think we are in for 24 legs just like last seasons: 3 legs per country/region, and that we are missing one country between Colombia and Turkey!
-
Gamerfan and I were discussing the possibility of a missed country and he found an Instagram post of a bunch of camera/sound crew with a picture taken in a wintery snowy location. Not sure if we're allowed to post it since it's production, but unless one of the countries they went to already had a super snowy region that they visited, this is probably a missing country with three legs during the ~10 days we had no sightings.
My personal speculation is still 24 legs with each country hosting three legs. Just from a TV production standpoint, in my opinion, it would also make sense for each new country to have two elimination legs and one non-elimination leg so that when it airs on TV three days in a row, there's only one NEL per week.
-
No. Not production stuff openly posted here. We can't put in risk people's work.

I don't follow. Are Tiffany & Cynthia in the F3? Or is the unknown team? I am very confused right now.

You can share the country without posting the picture, that's allowed.

Reverse google image search says Whistler BC but a lot of the detectives don't think so.
I think it might be in Europe - Norway or Austria. Think Snowy af European Country

Could it be in Turkey?
I know in some parts of it there's mountains and snow

Cappadocia, which is more in line with Ten's budget than either Scandinavia or the Alps.

This, and our timeline is updated to reflect this. Unless we have photographic evidence that they were in WA, they remain at risk and unseen since Belize 2.
-
That clip of running to the Pit Stop again and again from Fremantle seems to be going a little viral on Twitter these past couple days, as "If you thought reality TV was real, watch this"
As I'm looking for teams in Canada, this moment has gone viral again. I'm seeing it everywhere. LOL
-
Think this could be our route along with a mini timeline to fill in assumptions thanks to the recent Turkey info:
March 5: Start of the season
March 6-10: Morocco filming (five-day period, Legs 1-3)
March 11: Transit/Pre-Prep
March 12-16 (?): Greece filming (five-day period, Legs 4-6)
This is where things get tricky, but considering how they spent five whole days in Morocco, I don't think it's a stretch to assume that Greece was also a potential three-leg stretch filmed over five days.
Now we have a 72-hour shutdown. The 72 hour shutdown timeline is confirmed by a TV Blackbox podcast where they said that production shut down for 72 hours only and resumed. So...
March 16-19: Production shuts down over COVID concerns. Production starts preparing for replacement host Scott to arrive in Turkey.
March 20: Transit/Pre-Prep, Scott seen in a barber shop in Konak, Izmir, Turkey
Now we have that article saying the shoot in Turkey took place over five days. So I'm going to assume that we may have had an afternoon-night leg in Konak. This is possible because we have a confirmed night leg for Leg 1 and our sightings in Athens was also night racing.
March 20-24: Turkey filming (three legs? Konak, Alacati, and then Bornova) Leg 7-9?
Things get a bit trickier here since if we were to assume the five-day theory holds that we have another 5-6 day gap before we saw teams. Ergo, I think we had a missing stretch of three legs in an unknown country that we are yet to hear from.
March 29: Scott seen in Bogota, Colombia. Teams racing in Bogota. (Leg 13)
March 30: Guatapé leg. (Leg 14)
April 1-2: Potential Cartagena leg (Leg 15?)
April 3: Beau posts an Instagram story at the Cartagena airport.
My guess for this stretch is that we had three Colombia legs as well. Bogota, Guatapé, then Cartagena, filmed over five days. (March 29-April 2) April 3 was a transit day.
April 4: Belize City leg (Leg 16)
April 5: Caye Caulker leg (Leg 17)
April 6: ?, Belize Leg (Leg 18)
April 7: Transit[/i]
To carry over the five-day theory yet again, I'm going to assume that our missing stretch of filming before Caye Caulker to Merida means we had a third Belize leg.
April 8: Teams seen in Merida (Leg 19)
April 9: Second Merida leg (Leg 20)
April 10-11: ? leg (Leg 21)
April 12-13: Transit to Perth
Again, I believe we had a third Mexico leg as we do have another gap. Additionally, I think transit for this took a bit longer because going from Mexico to Perth alone takes more than a day with connections factored in.
April 14: Leg 22 in Perth
April 15: Leg 23 in Fremantle
April 17: Leg 24 in Broome
So there we have it! I could be wrong, but I believe we should be expecting this for this season.

Correction: "Rabat" should be Marrakech.

Did we confirm whether the shot looking down into the courtyard at the Group A teams in Marrakesh, was post-Leg 1?
It's clear you can see Lauren & Steph, Morgan & Lilli, the older FF team (who I no longer believe to be Claire & Jodie), Reem & Crystal, Angel & Francis (bottom of shot with orange beanie), Stuart & Sam, and what I believe to be Nara & Glennon (see the team in the shot attached).
The reason I ask the above question is:
1) The older FF team appear to be reading some sort of additional information? Are we sure this isn't just a HOH and halfway through Leg 1? To further this conversation, isn't there a Moroccan man seen bottom left of shot holding a clue?
2) If this is post-Leg 1, isn't that Nara & Glennon in the shot? Therefore, with 7 teams in that shot including them, and Kathy & Chace and Heath & Toni definitely moving later in the competition, doesn't that mean Sam & Alex were eliminated first? Although we spotted them in Athens didn't we? Colour me confused!
Just something I've been looking at and wondering. If they are reading clues at the start of Leg 2 (Leg 3 actually, given Group B did a leg somewhere) were they filming that before being transported to Chefchaouen for the merge of A & B?
What a complicated season lol!
-
Honestly, everything is pointing out that photo is not from LEG 2 and it was just misunderstanding. Maybe there was overnight stand and photo was taken next day? I also seen Nara & Glennon there... They may be NEL in LEG 1 but what are the odds?
Also why are you thinking older FF team from group A are not Claire and Jodie?

I’m also wondering if it was an overnight HOH point. In saying that, the shot that we alleged was Sam and Alex in Athens doesn’t really look exactly like them to be fair. And the only reason we linked it to them was their beanies being the same as in Marrakech at night, so it could be another team. Either Sam and Alex went home and this is indeed the start of the next leg, or they arrived in Marrakech at night, did some night tasks and then got to an HOH and this is only halfway through leg 1.
As for this not being Claire and Jodie - I am going on the video from the start line and the shot looking down into the courtyard where you can see the top of the ladies heads. It just doesn’t look like them in either video or this shot. Hair colour and shape looks different and the women running at the start line don’t look like Claire, or her figure, at all. I’m not a hundred sure, but that’s my speculation based on the spoilers.
-
In my notes, one of the posters on FB said they saw the pitstop being filmed so I'm pretty sure there wasn't a overnight HOH.
-
Then only option as 1st boot from Group A seems Sam & Alex but who is a team we mistakenly identified as them in Greece? :duno:
-
Think it's this unknown team from Group B. Peep the green inner part of his jacket.
(https://i.imgur.com/zy7oSAj.png) (https://i.imgur.com/yr6zhc4.png)
Also @ everyone, it's HOO (Hours of Operation), not Head of Household :funny:

So it looks like Sam & Alex are likely out in Marrakesh then, if that high-angle shot was taken after the first pitstop. The other 9 teams are all accounted for.
-
Yep, look like them.
I also do not think that Team 4 is Claire and Jodie. I watched the starting line video again and team 4 wear different clothes than team in Belize. Claire and Jodie sighted in Belize are wearing their Hawkesbury River Dragons uniform and it just does not make sense they would start the race in different clothes as they were clearly branding themselves as dragon race athletes with these clothes.
https://i.imgur.com/L8KFG1C.jpeg This is the sighting from Leg 2 and team 4 has one brown haired lady in it, Claire and Jodie are both blondes.
Do we really have 8 FF teams this season?

Production was clearly stacking the odds in favour of TARAUS's first ever female winner and given this version's history, it's the right choice.
-
Sam & Stuart, Reem & Crystal, Morgan & Lilli, Nara & Glennon, and Sam & Alex all followed each other at around the same time. All of these teams were home two days after that Scott sighting in Izmir happened.
Nara & Glennon made it to Colombia based on the new photo evidence. Are we sure they followed other teams during the time stated in the post?

Probably some confusion with that team specifically, but the clump of all these teams following each other at around the same time on Instagram stands and has basis. They're all on privated accounts too so there's no reason why it would be someone else accepting their requests.
Nara & Glennon were definitely home by April (social media activity), so if they got eliminated this would have been in Colombia.
-

Yeah, I really don't get why the show didn't see the problem before. If every single season of your show is being won by men's teams, especially physically fit alpha-male teams, you've got a problem -- with your tasks, your casting, or both. Kudos to them for finally addressing the problem via casting, at least. And it sounds like they've changed things up with the tasks, as well, and not made so many of them based on physical strength.
-
Since Corinth will almost certainly appear on a different episode than the one featuring Santorini, Athens could well be its own night leg.
-

Yep that matches what gamerfan laid out on the previous page, three legs in Greece.
My speculation is probably a leg in the Greek countryside (which includes the Corinth canal task), a night leg in Athens, and then the Santorini leg.
-
Agreed.
Perhaps the same principle applies to the triple Turkish legs, which potentially ventured beyond Izmir e.g. Cappadocia.

Official press release from 10:
Hosted by Beau Ryan, this season will see the contestants racing across six continents and experiencing the extraordinary delights of international destinations such as Turkey, Greece, Belize, Morocco, Mexico and Colombia.
They seem to be very adamant that this is a six-continent and seven-country Race (Australia included). I don't see them intentionally withholding a country so I guess this means we just spent more time in Greece/Turkey than originally needed while production tried to deal with the COVID outbreak? :duno:
I wonder if this means we're just 21 legs rather than the assumed 24 after AUS 5. This would also mean significantly less NELs, with 20 teams in 21 legs that would only leave 3 NELs for the whole season rather than 6, and no intruders.
-
Question, do we have 9 teams from one group spotted outside of Morocco?
Cuz I'm starting to wonder if we don't have 4 legs in Morocco, with 2 teams eliminated in each group, then meet up in Greece with 16 teams! If I'm not mistaken, no teams from Group A was spotted in Chefchaouen right?
When looking at the timeline, it seems from group A, team 4 (older F/F teams), team 5 (Reem and Crystal) and team 10 (Sam & Alex) were not spotted outside of Morocco (One leg in Marrakech + somewhere else)
With group B: Team 13 (Jake/Holly) and Mystery team 19 were not spotted outside of Morocco! (We know this group has a leg in Ouarzazate and one in Chefchaouen)
The first Greek leg was filmed very close to the end of the Chefchaouen leg, so maybe Group A had two legs back to back first and then they filmed the two Morocco legs for group B (Ouarzazate and Chefchaouen). Then everybody in Greece...
-
Just want to add to the 21-leg theory:
Leg 1: Melbourne to Ouarzazate, Morocco (Group B - I'm actually inclined to think "Group B" in our spoilers is "Group A" on the actual season as Beau is present at this starting line but for the sake of this post I will be referring to our Spoiled Group B). 10 teams race, 1 team eliminated in 20th.
Leg 2: Sydney to Marrakesh, Morocco (Group A) 10 teams race, Alex & Sam likely eliminated in 19th.
Leg 3: Chefchaouen, Morocco (Merge?) 18 teams race, 1 team eliminated in 18th.
Leg 4-6: Greece 17 teams race, three teams eliminated in 17th-15th place.
Leg 7-9: Turkey 14 teams race, three teams eliminated in 14th-12th place.
Leg 10-12: Colombia 11 teams race, three teams eliminated in 11th-9th place, one of which is Nara & Glennon.
Leg 13-15: Belize 9 teams race, two teams eliminated in 8th-7th place. I'm speculating we have an NEL burned by now, as we saw exactly eight teams in what might be Belize 2. Absolutely no basis to say only 2 teams eliminated in Belize, but I definitely think Belize 2 is our F8 leg.
Leg 16-18: Mexico 6 teams race, 2 teams eliminated in 6th/5th place, one of which is Steph & Lauren.
Leg 19-21: Australia 4 teams race, Mori & Pako eliminated, likely F3 NEL, Finale. We have absolutely no sightings of Tiffany & Cynthia in the 2nd WA leg, but we definitely have three WA legs as timeline of events live were: Mori & Pako seen racing at dusk → They resurface on social media → Proper leg on the next day (the now infamous sighting of Kelly & Georgia heading to the South Mole Lighthouse Pit Stop) → Finale two days later.
I think this could happen. I don't see them withholding any country from the route at this stage, three legs per country/week seem feasible, and our sightings align with this, factoring in the slightly extended schedule in Greece/Turkey due to the COVID breach.
-
Gamerfan and I were discussing the possibility of a missed country and he found an Instagram post of a bunch of camera/sound crew with a picture taken in a wintery snowy location. Not sure if we're allowed to post it since it's production, but unless one of the countries they went to already had a super snowy region that they visited, this is probably a missing country with three legs during the ~10 days we had no sightings.
Could it have resembled Ara(c)hova and Mount Parnassus from the latest promo:
-
Leg 16-18: Mexico 6 teams race, 2 teams eliminated in 6th/5th place, one of which is Steph & Lauren.
Leg 19-21: Australia 4 teams race, Mori & Pako eliminated, likely F3 NEL, Finale. We have absolutely no sightings of Tiffany & Cynthia in the 2nd WA leg, but we definitely have three WA legs as timeline of events live were: Mori & Pako seen racing at dusk → They resurface on social media → Proper leg on the next day (the now infamous sighting of Kelly & Georgia heading to the South Mole Lighthouse Pit Stop) → Finale two days later.
Do we have proof for Steph & Lauren being eliminated in Mexico? And are we sure about Tiffany & Cynthia making it to F3?

We saw them in Mexico 2 but not in Mexico 3 or Australia, and the description of local sightings of "two girls in red" in WA don't match them at all. Again, no concrete sightings, but they definitely made it to Mexico.
-
1st leg - 1st starting line group to somewhere in Morocco, wall smashing challenge
2nd leg - 2nd starting line group to Marrakesh Morocco.
3rd leg - both starting line groups merged and raced in Chefchaouen Morocco.
Is this correct? That would pretty much confirmed unknown team as 20th place team eliminated first in 1st leg.
-
So the premiere city is Ouarzazate?
-
With the new promo showing Reem and Crystal in Greece, that pretty much narrow don our first three Morocco boots to:
20th place - unknown team from 1st starting group.
19th place - Sam and Alex from 2nd starting group.
18th place - either Holly & Jake or our unidentified older FF team. There was that shot in the promo of Holly & Jake being sad for probably missing HOO and then we had sighting of them waiting at Pit Stop with penalty most likely, so I am SPECULATING Holly and Jake may be 18th place team eliminated in Morocco III.

Was the (non-Beau) host at the Sydney Starting Line ever identified?

Question: Do we have any proof of group A (The sydney group) being in Chefchaoun?
-
Question: Do we have any proof of group A (The sydney group) being in Chefchaoun?
We do not have we are just assuming it. But to be fair, only people from group B were seen Chefchaoun in the promo. Sooo... Did our 2 starting line groups run 2 separate legs each? And then merged in 16? Would 2nd leg of group B be in Morocco or Greece then?
-
Was the (non-Beau) host at the Sydney Starting Line ever identified?
-
Could it have been Scott, and then he sat around waiting as a backup once teams merged? At least then he wouldn't have come out of nowhere when he takes over hosting.

It goes without saying that one can fully rule out Grant Bowler.

You can see Bren and Anja saying "We can't do it." in 0:24. It looks like the place with these animal skins in pools like in TAR3/TAR5.
Any idea if this task was in Marrakech leg (which they survived) or in Chefchaouen?

Episode descriptions for Episode 4-6:
Episode 4: Racers arrive in Athens for a thrilling round of archery, and a visit to the fabled Temple of Poseidon, before facing a tricky detour and a spanakopita feeding frenzy that may determine their fate.
Episode 5: Teams test their driving skills and go fishing from the docks, before they must lead a donkey up a cliff, and jump into a parkour challenge across Santorini's rooftops in the adventure of a lifetime.
Episode 6: Teams race to Mt Parnassus in the Greek Alps, where they must hold their own traditional Greek wedding ceremony, and dive into a frosty challenge. Will someone be sent home on this leg of the race?
So based on these descriptions and our sightings it looks like both Jake and Holly and Bren and Anja did not make it to Episode 5 as all other teams were seen in Santorini or in later legs. I would guess models being out at 18th due to penalty and then Bren and Anja being eliminated in Greece I.
Also Episode 6 description kind of suggest NEL?
-
I could already tell Bren & Anja won't last long. They're a team TARAus casts every season, an older pair who makes great entertainment but aren't cut out for the competitive environment.
Plus they're advertised as animal lovers and "vegan warriors". They'll probably take a penalty as soon as something comes up involving animals or meat. Some who came on the show in the past weren't willing to break with their values for a chance to win, like vegetarian Terence from TAR13.
-
Do Sam and Alex have to drop out before the beginning of next leg or how are they not spotted anywhere else but Bren and Anja are
-

I don't think so, I think people saw them on that picture at the hotel in the day, and because people thought the leg was only night, but it was part of the same leg...
I hope they don't come back, they were terrible...
-
Somebody left?
-
So Here is my specs from new promos and other videos:
Sam & Alex and Jake & Holly are not seen after next leg...
but everybody else is seen until episode 5 (In Santorini), and the description for episode 4 is racing in Athens. So I think these two teams are our next teams outs in episode 3 and 4
(Unless episode 4 is a NEL, or that Athens is just the first part and they do travel in Santorini).
Last seen in Santorini: (Eliminated in Greece or Turkey)
- Tammy & Vincent
- Crystal & Reem
- Sam & Stu
- Morgan & Lilly
We know Fliss & Tottie make it somewhere warm (so after Greece) when she hurts herself. Next to her in that scene is a sign in English, so could it be Belize?
We know all the other teams make it to Colombia
Last seen in Colombia:
- Flick & Gabby (Someone said they made it to Mexico but I didn't see any caps)
- Kathy & Chace
- Stuart & Glennon
Last Seen in Belize:
-Jodie & Claire (Survive first Belize leg)
-Chelsea & Jamus (Survive first Belize leg, but active on Social Media during that time, so probably eliminated in Belize 2 or 3, or Mexico 1)
-Heath & Toni (Survive first Belize leg)
-Tiffany & Cynthia (Report of red shirt FF team in Australia but we can't be sure it's them 100%)
Last Seen in Mexico:
- Lauren & Steph
These 3 teams spotted in Australia:
- Kelly & Georgia (Final 3)
- Angel & Frankie (Final 3)
- Pako & Mori (Made it to Perth, active on Social Media before the end of the race, so perhaps our Final 4 (or 5) team
Did I missed anything?

It's funny how during filming certain ppl thought Bren and Anja made it to Belize. Bren and Anja didn't stand a chance to win or go far

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, so mods please feel free to move or delete as needed!
It seems to me there is a disconnect between the number of legs and the locations visited.
If memory serves correct, we were thinking there would be somewhere in the neighborhood of 24 legs like last season. I also remember us talking about how we might expect 3 legs in each location.
However, this seems to pose an issue, as we have
Morocco (1A, 1B and 2)
Greece (3, 4 and 5)
Turkey (6, 7 and 8)
Colombia (9, 10 and 11)
Belize (12, 13 and 14)
Mexico (15, 16, and 17)
Western Australia (18, 19, 20)
This leaves for four unaccounted legs. I think there are three possibilities:
1) There are only 20 legs instead of 24
2) Teams are spending more than three legs in each country
3) There is an as-of-yet unknown destination (or destinations!) that teams visited
What do you guys think is most likely?
-
Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if we missed a country. I remember some odd gaps in filming. Due to the Covid situation, they probably had to take a brief break in Turkey when Scott came in, to test everyone and such.
-

We did not miss a country. The Season credits on 10 Play only credit Morocco, Turkey, Greece, Colombia, Belize, Mexico, and WA for location sightings.
I'm going to agree with Brannock and say that this season is just 20 legs, 7 weeks, 21 episodes.
-
Great then! That means only 3 non-eliminations in the whole season, assuming things run smoothly for the cast. A huge improvement over the 50 from last season.
-
Also some VERY stray analysis from the intros/season preview:
(https://i.imgur.com/rqxrf1a.png)
Stuart & Glennon in Colombia.
(https://i.imgur.com/viZ9XM2.png)
Jodie & Claire doing what appears to be Turkish oil wrestling?
(https://i.imgur.com/EvJblV4.png)
Confirmation of Optus Stadium as a location in our Perth leg (Mori & Pako seen!).
(https://i.imgur.com/OjmVfCs.png)
A proper confirmation of our third Belize leg location - Buddha Bowl Belize and Bambu Tea + Coffee is in San Ignacio, Belize. That means our Belize legs are in Belize City, Caye Caulker, and San Ignacio.
And that's all I have for now.
-
Any idea in the first episode's screening where Angel & Frankie were seen in the snow? Is it one of the places in Turkey?

Episode 4 and there is covid case within the teams already... I am really worried this will become a norm and teams will be taking sick days here and there because of covid.
They shut down production for like a week when Beau got covid right?

Considering how we had absolutely no sightings but have at least 11 teams confirmed for Colombia (including Kathy & Chace), I'm hopeful that nothing else happened and Kathy & Chace return in Turkey 1.
Now back to 10's statement during the initial report:
“There have been a small number of positive COVID cases detected within the production of The Amazing Race Australia, but filming on the upcoming season has not been impacted.
The crew that are affected are in isolation while the production continues.”
Very very sneaky wording from the show during the temporary shutdown! They made it a point to say filming wasn't impacted and only mentioned crew affected.
-
So if there is no NEL in Turkey, this means we are losing these 4 teams next:
Tammy & Vincent
Sam & Stu
Morgan & Lilli
Crystal & Reem
There is a small chance one of them makes it to Colombia and further if there is a NEL in Turkey
The only mystery is where Fliss & Tottie go. Because we have this clip of them where one gets hurt and the sign next to them is in english. It looks warm and tropical so my guess is that they make it to Belize (and maybe there were not seen with the other F8 teams)

Tomorrow's episode will be interesting. As the promo implies they'll have to stop the race, due to the heavy snow storms hitting the region.
Cross checking with our sightings, Athens (Leg 4) was filmed on March 12, Santorini (leg 5) was Filmed during the afternoon of March 13. Meaning if they kept with 12-ish hours rest period, they started leg 6, on March 14, and at some point of that day freezing the race happens.
As we don't sight them again until Turkey on March 20 after Beau and crew get sidelined by COVID. Very curious how things will turn out.
Race likely doesn't get restarted until around March 17 or 18. Episode description gives very little away.
With that additional break, does the lawyers, rejoin from Morocco midway through leg 6 or not until Turkey?
-
Will that Tweedie boy be announced at the end of the last Greek leg or at the start of the first Turkish one?

It'll probably end off the preview after tonight's episode:
Beau VO: "Next time on The Amazing Race Australia, teams travel to Izmir, Turkey..." blah, blah "...and, a first in the history of The Amazing Race!"
*Scott walks in, cue racers' shocked faces*
-
Well, this preview gives a hint. This robot might just be Scott's idea of an introduction. Since he came from Prank Patrol, this would be right in line with something the show would do (I watched the Canadian version as a kid and loved it)

Beau did the bungee jump in the Corinth canal. I wonder what leg this was supposed to be and why we never got it :duno:
-
Serious question. Do you think they made next leg (unplanned) NEL? Or did they really allowed robot to eliminate one of the teams? I mean...
-
With proper confirmation that Cartagena is our 3rd Colombian leg, a few things come up for our spoilers:
-Stuart & Glennon and Flick & Gabby are sighted in the Cartagena leg from show promos. Stuart & Glennon are 100% gone in Colombia (there's an Instagram post of them in Bogota posted while surviving teams were likely in Belize), so safe to say they're out then.
-There is no mention of a waterfall or any water-related tasks in the Colombia episode descriptions.
-Ergo, Fliss & Tottie AND Flick & Gabby both make Belize.
-Kathy & Chace are 100% eliminated first out of them/Stuart & Glennon. Whether this is in Medellin or Bogota is TBD, but one of these legs is an NEL.
-This means that there's a possibility our Caye Caulker leg is the third Belize leg. The first is San Ignacio (where we got no sightings, and it looks like they go to waterfalls in there), then Belize City (where we saw Chelsea & Jamus win), and then Caye Caulker (where we saw exactly 8 teams).
Thus, our boot order should be (NEL placement not factored in):
12th: Kathy & Chace (eliminated in Colombia 1/2)
11th: Stuart & Glennon (eliminated in Colombia 3)
10th-9th: Any combo of Flick & Gabby and Fliss & Tottie (eliminated in Belize 1/2)
8th-5th (likely, no confirmation): Any combo of Jodie & Claire/Chelsea & Jamus/Heath & Toni/Lauren & Steph
4th: Pako & Mori (eliminated in Australia)
F3: Angel & Frankie, Kelly & Georgia, Tiffany & Cynthia
Feel free to fill in any potential gaps lol.
-
I'm glad to see Kathy & Chace out next. Sorry, I feel for them, but it's unfair they get to skip 6 out of 8 legs (Stuart & Glennon got cleared in half the time somehow) while the other 10 teams busted their butts to get this far.
-
4th: Pako & Mori (eliminated in Australia)
F3: Angel & Frankie, Kelly & Georgia, Tiffany & Cynthia
Pako & Mori being out at 4th place would mean F3 NEL which I find unlikely. They were eliminated in 1st of 3 Australia legs for sure so I think they are 5th place. Tiffany & Cynthia may or may not make F3, apparently they were seen (no photo evidence) in penultimate leg so they can be 4th place as well.
I think there is another team who made it to Australia and we were just not lucky enough to have sightings of them. This team is either 4th place or F3. It's either Jodie & Claire or Heath & Toni or Lauren & Steph.

I think it's one of those teams, too. Jodie & Claire, Heath & Toni, and Lauren & Steph have all had stronger, more prominent edits than Tiffany & Cynthia (which is odd, as you'd think that the first-ever aunt/niece team would be a lot more present onscreen). Wouldn't surprise me if one of them had pulled it off instead.
I'm confused as to why people think that Flick & Gabby are out before F3, though. The way the rivalry with Angel & Frankie has been edited, it almost feels like the story of the season. Were they on social media at any point in time before the finale was taped?

Agreed on another 4th not sighted team being very likely.
Regarding Flick & Gabby, didn't someone mention via promotional material analysis, that there's evidence, they might've been DQ through injury?

Flick and Gabby were active on SM before Mexico. They are 100% eliminated in Belize.
Fliss & Tottie are team that was showed being potentially injured in the promo not Flick and Gabby.
-
I can confirm Flick and Gabby were back at their cafe/business during the Mexico legs. I wonder what was their downfall because they are such a strong team.
Chelsea and Jamus are out by that time as well
-
So if Chelsea and Jamus are out that means we probably have 7 or 8 teams in Mexico
(Depending on if Fliss and Tottie make it from the injury)
Which means I think we have 5 teams in Australia!
Only 2 teams eliminated in Mexico?
-
Chelsea and Jamus could make it to Mexico as well... Chelsea was back to SM by 13th April. Mexico's legs started around 8th April... Lot of time... First Australia leg where Pako and Mori got eliminated was 14th April. So Chelsea and Jamus were eliminated either in Belize III or in one of the Mexico's legs.
My pure speculation is that one of the missing F4 team is either Lauren & Steph (last seen in Mexico II) or Heath & Toni (last seen in Belize III) because I just can not see Jodie & Claire make it this far even thought I would love it.

Chelsea's social media activity around that time was an Instagram story at a hotel in Mexico posted the day of the second Mexico leg. Then production flew with them back to Australia via LAX and Japan.
They're very likely out there > Belize since it looks like production sends eliminated teams to a hotel of the current country, then flew them home after the third leg ended (same scenario with Stuart & Glennon in Colombia, blondes in Turkiye, etc.)
Can also confirm that all teams will not be at the Finish Line.
-
Thanks for clarification gamerfan09.
If Chelsea and Jamus were really eliminated in Mexico II that would mean that Lauren and Steph made it to Mexico III.
-
Perhaps Flick & Gabby get U-Turned out of the race, likely by Angel & Frankie.
-
And with the teams we have spotted for the final legs.
Angel & Frankie might be one of the only team to actually make it to the entire race, with a new batch of sidelined teams we got for the colombiam legs. Well, them and Pako & Mori who we know also makes it back to Australia.
As we've been discussing the possibility of another 4th(5th, if we count Pako & Mori), not sighted team racing for the final Australian Legs, now I am kind of hoping that Heath & Toni, might be them. So at least there's another team make it for the most of the race, without being sidelined by COVID.
-
With Caye Caulker officially confirmed to be Belize 3, it's safe to say that every team leaves isolation next week and Flick & Gabby/Fliss & Tottie are both toast in the first two legs. No room to believe the latter entered isolation as they were already home by the time we saw teams in Mexico, and Gabby was already active on social media the day before we sighted teams in Caye Caulker.
Additionally, it would be probably the most fair scenario (and who knows what happens), but I'm expecting production to just roll the dice with Mexico just being a long bus/car ahead and letting everyone race in Mexico no matter what and worry about potential breaches after the fact.
Updating our speculated boot order below:
10th-9th: Any combo of Flick & Gabby and Fliss & Tottie (eliminated in Belize 1/2)
8th-4th (likely, no confirmation): Any combo of Jodie & Claire/Heath & Toni/Chelsea & Jamus (last seen in Belize 3)/Lauren & Steph (last seen in Mexico 2)/Pako & Mori (eliminated in Australia 1)/Tiffany & Cynthia (allegedly last seen in Australia 2)
F3: Angel & Frankie, Kelly & Georgia, Unknown
The door is wide open for an unknown 5th team making it to Australia and perhaps even making the finale, especially if Belize 3 or one of the Mexico legs has the final NEL.
-
It sucks we're going to lose Flick & Gabby soon. They've been such a strong female team :'(
One bad leg is all it takes in The Amazing Race.

And unfortunately, based on the promo for the next episode, that's them leaving in Belize 1.
-
The medevac we thought would happen in Belize is confirmed. Must be Fliss & Tottie

"Who will be injured and leave the race for good?"

And just some earlier screencaps that now make sense as per episode descriptions:

Tiffany & Cynthia "zip lining into a cenote" before finding Beau at the Pit Stop in Mexico 3.

Frankie "heading into the clouds for a joyride" aka skydiving in Australia 1.
-
There's no video or photographic evidence to prove it. But at least edit wise, I wouldn't be surprised if Heath and Toni turned out to be out "missing" team racing in Australia, as our math does point to making more sense having 5 teams heading back rather than only 4.
-
With Mexico 1 officially being our Keep on Racing leg/final Non Elim, that basically confirms it - five teams indeed make it back to Australia!
-
Some analysis from the promo for Legs 18-20:

Heath & Toni at an unknown place (In WA?).
Based on the promos/sightings, the only teams we cannot properly confirm made it to Australia are Lauren & Steph and Heath & Toni. Considering how Heath & Toni are currently leading on betting sites by an enormous margin (which was correct during AUS4/5), it would be surprising if they missed out on the finale. And if they won, I believe this would be the first time in a while where we didn't see the winners at all during finale sightings.
-
Heath & Toni have placed top 2 for the last six legs. Lauren & Steph have been plodding along since they came back. The odds are absolutely on the latter to go.
-
Well, that confirms that Tiffany & Cynthia are either 4th or our missing team in the F3, as we only had hearsay, without photo confirmation of them racing in AUS.
Between Heath and Toni / Lauren and Steph (oddly they're both Darker shade of blue teams), the latter are the only team without win. Also, with the prominent edit Heath and Toni been getting, if they're out in Mexico 3, I kind of expected they might have done a similar tease they did with Flick & Gabby for the promo for Belize 1. At least, from this standpoint it seems more likely that Lauren & Steph are our 6th place team.
-
So Heath & Toni did make it to Australia. Thought it'd be them.

Based on the betting odds which were historically always right for both TARAU and SURVIVORAU Heat and Toni made it to F3 and won.

Gosh, I'm not. Eight women's teams cast and not a single one in the F3? That'd turn me right off this season.

I will respectfully disagree, especially if they win :) From a competitive standpoint Toni & Heath have pushed themselves into the top tier of teams this season with Pako & Mori and the ever-declining Angel & Frankie, and the pair of them have been kind and supportive to each other and the other competitors in the face of all the insanity that is The Amazing Race Australia (to say nothing of her having incurable cancer or racing around the world post-pandemic).
There's a brief preview from the official twitter - https://twitter.com/amazingrace_au/status/1576648286697656323
Tiffany & Cynthia are running to the Royal Aero Club of WA (https://www.royalaeroclubwa.com.au/) (they may be asked to go to Jandakot Airport). I have to assume this is where the plane roadblock occurs.
(https://i.imgur.com/oCla6UV.png)
Tiffany's jacket would suggest it's early in the day, but who knows with this franchise :funny:
Angel & Frankie are running past the Love Locks (https://www.thebelltower.com.au/love-locks-perth/) to get to the Swan Bells Tower
(https://i.imgur.com/P8zWvcS.png)
On TAR 9, all they had to do was go up and get a clue from here; in this franchise I would not be surprised if they reprised the love locks task from TAR 6 and other versions in some manner.
The preview also basically telegraphs Pako & Mori's elimination :groan: reading between the lines, implies it's because Pako/they can't or won't complete the task at the stadium

I care nothing about that.

Not following any of the racers socials, but was just reminded of something from TAR Can.
The winning team kinda gave it away they won the race on TAR Canada, when it was mentioned they were the ones hosting the viewing party for the racers. Curious if this is happening here as well.
