Amazing Race Suomi - Season 1

12 teams start the competition in Helsinki and head to the world to fight both against time and against each other. There are 12 stages, countless missions and wild challenges ahead. In the first stage, the contestants orient themselves in Bangkok and encounter both local culture and great emotions with their partner. One team's taxi breaks down in the middle of a traffic jam, and the others run out of money. During the route, the slowest are eliminated from the race, and the first team to reach the finish line wins 30,000 euros

The elephants' food supply puts the competitors' heads on the wheel, and the strange ingredients arouse wonder. On the beach, the teams get to have some serious fun, when chopping coconuts and digging sand push them to their limits. An errant driver causes fury, and falling coins drive competitors to the brink of despair.

Strange shrimps arouse astonishment in teams, and good throwing skills open the possibility of passing. The reed boat spins in circles on the pond, and the taxi drivers' route choices make you sweat. The last battle takes place at the clay pots, when the right shape cannot be found.

In this stage, the contestants face their worst nightmare when they are presented with exotic delicacies. Bouncing a feather bag puts your coordination to the test, and the old drumming traditions seem impossible to learn. On a busy street corner, sugarcane is pushed into a press and super sweet juice is made.

Street children and poverty hit the Teams hard, and tears are inevitable. This time, the contestants get to practice charity and dance with spinning clay pots on their heads. One competitor loses his nerve when a screw disappears inside the scooter, and the other has to step over and over again into a cage full of snakes.
