Development and filming

This season also introduced the variant of the Intersection that was also in the second Latin American season, where two teams compete against each other, with the first team winning getting their next clue and the losing team waiting at for another team to redo the challenge, and if the team was the last at the Intersection, they would wait out a penalty.
