For the first time in The Amazing Race history two countries will be pitted against each other in The Amazing Race Australia vs. New Zealand! The Trans-Tasman rivalry will get a new playing field when ten teams of two – five from Australia and five from New Zealand – race through ten countries, six continents and almost 90,000kms in the true adventure of a lifetime. The last team to finish each leg faces the prospect of elimination, and the team that finishes first at the end will collect the grand prize of $250,000. What tactics will play out in the Race? Will teams bond under their national flag, or will ambition and personal pride triumph over patriotism?
