One of my 2 favorite teams this season, I was sorry they didn’t make it farther into the race.

I will die on this hill. Totally production’s fault. 1. They should have workshopped this scenario and had contingency plans for it. 2. This is not like running to a roadblock, driving is a serious responsibility, particularly in another country, on the other side of the road, with road rules you’re unfamiliar with and you’re tired and stressed absolutely disgraceful to put into a driver an added burden of making sure the crew is behind them. 3. Danny followed the rule he’d been buried in that very morning. 4. Danny and Angie aren’t to know whether the crew were going to try and find them on the same route or whether there were other routes to get to the detour. 5. Danny and Angie can’t know the safety of pulling over to wait for a crew that may or may not be coming. There are certain parts of South Africa where I’m not pulling over and waiting for anyone. 6. The fact that the crew never turned up is very telling. Not only could they not follow Danny and Angie, they couldn’t find the detour despite knowing where it is and having communications with the producers at the detour. Something very odd happened. 7. Every super fan knows that if a penalty was warranted (and it wasn’t) penalties are done at the mat. 8. Production dropped the ball on at least three areas here and seemed to be covering their tracks. I’m surprised they didn’t look at the video footage from Danny and Angie’s car while all the discussions were going on either at the detour or at the mat where you can clearly see the production car losing Danny and Angie. Anyway super frustrating and if Danny and Angie aren’t invited back at the first opportunity most fans will be even more outraged than they already are at this total c*ck up. Glad for Danny and Angie’s sake that they are gracious and not litigious, and it hasn’t dampened their love for the show.

Production should have made an exception and let them continue the Race.

Can we just mention the little memento hanging on Fannys wall? Sneaky sneaky man taking clues home with him… 😉😊🥰 (Although due to all involved knowing his true love & absolute passion for TAR, I don’t think production minded one bit😉🙃)

Angie's Butcher explanation is complete BS! She can giggle all she wants. I don't believe it.

[@gloriagarcia-jc7sv]

They should have continued with out the crew. I won’t be watching amazing race anymore. I hope they cancel the show for good.

[@nikkihodgson6068]

They could have controlled it...communication with crew. Stop immediately. Go back! Don't wait so long to radio them. It was not dangerous! Don't keep on going.
