Both groups of seven teams would run a leg in Israel resulting in two teams eliminated. Unlike the previous season, both groups of seven teams were aware of each other. In addition, similar to last season, teams' overall placements were determined when teams checked-in at an empty Pit Stop mat at the Hedgend Maze in Australia, and teams had to return to Ariel Sharon Park to learn of their final placement. Ben & Ori and Yael & Yosiel competed on "HaMerotz LaMillion 8". Jonathan "Joezi" Zirah later competed on the of the Israeli edition of "Survivor" with Season 4 contestant Ruth "Alexa Dol" Dolgakov.
