Who was eliminated on The Amazing Race in week 2?
Arun Kumar and Natalia Kumar - Father and daughter
Lifelong Amazing Race fans Arun and Natalia were coming off a top three finish in the previous leg, ready to continue that trajectory. Unfortunately, things hit a wall in Scotland. After getting lost, Natalia offered to help the other teams in the Roadblock, and who ended up passing them due to their further navigational difficulties. They fell into last when Arun struggled with performing a traditional song and dance, ending their Amazing Race tune only a couple of verses in.
What happened with the coronavirus shutdown on The Amazing Race in week 2?
After the conclusion of Leg 3, on February 28, 2020, Phil Keoghan gathered all the remaining teams. He said, due to the growing coronavirus pandemic, filming for the season would be taking a hiatus for the health and safety of the contestants. For the first time ever, the race was put on pause. And at the end of the episode, 19 months later, we saw the teams come back refreshed and excited to travel the world once more. But as we’ll see next week, not everyone made it back to the restart.
Which teams finished at the top in week 2?
It was pretty much a perfect day in Scotland for Kim and Penn Holderness. The YouTube parents had little difficulty navigating, and crushed all of the music-based tasks with ease. Finishing in second and third were the previous two leg winners, Ryan Ferguson and Dusty Harris and Anthony Sadler and Spencer Stone, respectively. The four continued to work together this leg after striking up a quick bond in the opening part of the race.
Which teams finished at the bottom in week 2?
Akbar and Sheri Cook called this leg the worst day of their lives. After spending the entire day struggling with both navigation and using the stick shift, they found themselves in dead last. But they were able to pass Arun and Natalia at the Detour to avoid elimination. Finishing above them were married couple Taylor and Isaiah Green-Jones, who similarly fell behind starting in scotland.
