  Amazing what kind of personalities you see come out of some of these people when they are racing....their bad ones.
  
  Monica & Edwin: Edwin yelling at his girlfriend saying shes stupid and not helpful at all then pushing her out of the way. Such a childish guy...
  
  Ann & Diane: Not sure what to say about them, maybe being two-faced is an advantage in a race.....but it still irks me cause I don't like those type of people in real life. Daichi was smart for not believing their lie but in the end, it caused him & Sawaka to lose time anyway.
  
  Henry & Trinidad: I don't understand how their marriage has lasted for 13 years. She does nothing but yell at the poor guy....even making him cry at one point and blaming him for everything when it is she who is at fault. They can do well in the race but arguing at every part has been slowing them down a lot.
  
  Sophie & Aurelia: Sophie's a b*tch to her partner, acts like a big baby. Always complaining and crying about how stupid Aurelia is. Aurelia is too nice...
  
  The other teams are all good and fair players.
  
  Adrian & Collin: For Adrian to be deaf and have them place 2nd for most of the race is amazing. They stole Marc & Rolvi's taxi at one point, but like he said it was fair game....its a race.
  
  Sawaka & Daichi: They are good, but I think too polite and calm for a race haha
