Topic: TAR AUS 6 DISCUSSION of the LIVE SPOILERS

[Avid]

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.

Maybe they went to Russia? 

Too soon, I think.

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.

Yeah there is not a chance on this earth that they are in Russia.

"Welcome to Russia!!....Ohio!!"

What do u mean?

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 

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.

[Parasparopagraho]

So 22nd April would be the 49th day possible - TARAUS5 was roughly 39 days.

[cbacbacba1]

If they are in Columbia now, what is the chance of having penultimate in Argentina and Chile before a direct flight back to Sydney?

[I ♥ TAR]

Do you think there was another country between Turkey and Colombia?

[Parasparopagraho]

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.

[ianthebalance]

Tbf that was a different production company so who knows

[ovalorange]

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.

[stunami]

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.

[OMGitsGARRET]

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)

[I ♥ TAR]

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.

[stunami]

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.

[Parasparopagraho]

The non-Sydney Starting Line would've been known by now, so no.

[H_E_L_L_O]

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 

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...
