Topic: TAR AUS 6 DISCUSSION of the LIVE SPOILERS

[Maanca]

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.

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)

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

[I ♥ TAR]

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.

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. Which I just cannot imagine happening either... but who knows? Otherwise I have no idea.

[I ♥ TAR]

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.

[ovalorange]

Everyone in Aus can travel to Sydney now, there's no restrictions at all.

[Avid]

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

[Avid]

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

[stunami]

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.

[Marionete]

Is this current season really 2 separate races of 11 teams, which well merge into 1 race at some point??

That's what I've read on Discord, came over here to check

[jonder]

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.

[ovalorange]

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). 

[stunami]

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)

[Avid]

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

[Avid]

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 .

[Maanca]

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.

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.

[Maanca]

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

[Parasparopagraho]

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.

[H_E_L_L_O]

I think it’s safe to say that we’ve lost them.

[OMGitsGARRET]

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
