Alfie & Owen are now the favourites to win Race Across The World after another change in the race
This year's Race Across The World continues in dramatic fashion this week with three of the four teams waiting to get an overnight ferry to the next checkpoint.
Lifelong friends Alfie Watts and Owen Wood were seen as the only team reaching the checkpoint in last week's show which will give them a massive lead.
The other teams still in the show were seen in Pekanbaru in Indonesia waiting for a transfer to Bukittinggi, with Betty and James taking an overnight bus from Dumai to the checkpoint.
Alfie and Owen now have a 50% chance of winning the show as we reach the penultimate leg this week with the competition getting more and more intense.
