IN PHOTOS: The remaining 8 teams of ‘Amazing Race Philippines’

MANILA, Philippines- Eight more teams are competing for the title in the second season of “The Amazing Race Philippines.”

For this week, viewers get to know the real personalities of each racer, as they experience higher pressure and tougher challenges on each race.

Team Dating Couple Matt and Phoebe are on the top as they successfully surpassed last week’s challenges. Yet their success comes with a burden, since Matt reveals the answer to Team Juan D, who was eliminated last week. This move is the reason why they got the most number of Yields on this leg of the race.

According to the couple, this competition made their relationship stronger, since this brings out their good and bad sides.

Meanwhile, tailing Team Dating Couple is Team Magkapatid, Yna and Jet. “Parang magkarugtong bituka namin kasi every placing nila, kasunod kami,” said Jet. Yet of course, they’re doing their best to get ahead of the Dating Couple and be on top.

Being siblings are both an advantage and disadvantage for Yna and Jet. It’s an advantage since they know each other so well that working as a team is natural. Yet it’s also a disadvantage since there will be instances where their patience with each other is being tested.

The third placer is Team Nerds, Vincent and Ed, who use their wits to win each challenge per race. This week, they were forced as well to use their remaining express ticket, to skip doing one of the challenges.

Not far behind are Team Chefs Eji and Roch, Team Blondies Tina and Avy, Team Mag-Ama AJ and Jody, Team Sexy Besties RR and Jeck, and lastly Team Mr. Pogi Kelvin and JP.

Find out how the racers’ conflicts and this leg’s challenges will affect which team to leave this week.  Catch The Amazing Race Philippines season 2 daily, 9 p.m. on TV5.
