Season 9

The reset. After the family experiment, the format snapped back to eleven two-person teams and a global route — out of Denver and across Brazil, central Europe, the Mediterranean, and the Middle East. CBS moved the hour to Wednesday for the spring. The casting returns to the archetypes the show had built its audience on, and Phil Keoghan greets pit stops on four continents. The race feels like the race again.
