Results

The following teams participated in the Race, listed in reverse finishing order:

• Red means the team was eliminated.
• Blue means the team was the last to arrive at a pit stop in a non-elimination leg of the race.
• Green means the team won the Fast Forward clue.
• *Dennis & Andrew used the Fast Forward in England, but they won the FF and they are eliminated.

Trivia

• The final 3 teams visited: 4 continents, 13 countries, and traveled 41,000 miles
• Heather and Eve were the first team to arrive at the Pit Stop in Portugal, but they misread a clue that told them walk to the Pit Stop rather than take a taxi. They proceeded to walk the rest of the way, but received a 7 minute time penalty for the advantage gained (the 2nd team arrived 7 minutes later), plus an additional 30 minutes. Since all teams arrived less than 37 minutes apart, Heather and Eve were the first team ever to arrive first and be eliminated.
• After the race, John Vito and Jill hosted a show that promoted Singapore tourism.
• Zach worked as a NBC cameraman for the 2004 Summer Olympics.
