Amen to that. The way they do it now is totally boring. If they would have at least three or four in a season, some excitement might actually come out of it. A team that's at the back of the pack could take the risk and either zoom ahead to first or lose their place and go from second last to last.
And fixing things so that every team is always on the same plane, boat, or bus makes it so dull. The producers think it'll prevent one team from falling too far behind. Instead, it makes everyone move in a big pack and ensures that the team with the fastest runners always gets ahead.
