## Story

After the shocking eliminations of Johnny and Noah, the alliance decided to take a different approach to their U-Turn voting, targeting a racer further back in the pack in the hopes of staying in the race. Many racers were elated to find out that all teams would be on the same flight, leveling the playing field. Upon arrival in Greece, Sean made a strategic decision which allowed him to surge to the front of the pack. At the Detour, many racers became frustrated with the difficulty and one racer spirals out of control, putting them in danger of possible elimination.
