Are we sure Bertram was the greeter in 31's Netherlands leg? Because no greeter was ever shown on screen for that episode, even in a wide shot.

He was briefly visible when Leo & Jamal were running in (the giveaway is his red Ferrari cap).

Interesting. Our mystery greeter could very well have been Van Munster, himself. He is Dutch-born, so why not?

He is always nearby. He is a hands on producer. Def would not mean he was the greeter.  Ask a racer?

Floyd confirmed it.

I got all the TARAu5 ones because they were all identified on-screen.

CA 2-11 greeter is Robert Gallant. I knew I'd seen a local post on Facebook about him back when it aired in 2014, it took a little searching to dig it up again.

CH2-4 has two greeters. One is (if I've done my translation correctly) Daniel Kirchert, Byton CEO and Co-Founder, who was there to talk about the prize. The other might be an impersonator, or just someone dressed in local cultural attire.

The first 2 episodes of TAR33 interestingly didn't have one, unless the tea lady counts. That might be a running thing through the season under Covid rules.

Shocked no one mentioned the greeter from TAR 13 who was watering his garden as teams were coming in. That guy had to be a replacement

Bit of a weird one here. In HaMerotz 8, Leg 6/episode 20, the greeter in Santiago is wearing a sash identifying her as Miss Chile 20[her arm is blocking the year in every shot]. But not only can I not find any evidence of Miss Chile existing as a pageant at all - the two big pageants that feed into Miss Universe and Miss World are Miss Universo Chile and Miss Mundo Chile and neither is simply Miss Chile - but even looking through the photos of winners the greeter doesn't visibly match any of them from around the time the season was filmed. Anyone able to identify?

Also another odd one from earlier in the same season: The greeter in Amsterdam is clearly one of those "historical cosplay" greeters HaMerotz loves to do every so often buuuuuuut even with the power to look up what the historical figures in question looked like I can't tell if it's supposed to be William of Orange, Abel Tasman, or Frans Banninck Cocq (pictured in Rembrandt's The Night Watch). Any theories?

He looks like Frans Banninck Cocq, and that would make sense since the Pit Stop was outside Rijksmuseum.
