The Amazing Race Vietnam: Cuộc đua kỳ thú 2019 is the sixth season of the reality television game show, The Amazing Race Vietnam. It featured ten teams of two celebrities in a race around Vietnam for 300 million.

The season premiered on July 7, 2019 on VTV3 and aired every Saturday (20:00 UTC+7).[1]

Singer and The Voice of Vietnam contestant Song Luân as well as singer and former racer Hương Giang hosted this season replacing Huy Khánh.

Production

Development and filming

Teams began the sixth season of The Amazing Race Vietnam in Hà Giang Province by traveling through the Mã Pí Lèng Pass.

In May 2019, rumors circulated that VTV3 and BHD were attempting to revive the Race franchise after a three year hiatus from the previous season.[3] Soon after, open casting calls for a new season of The Amazing Race Vietnam appeared.[4] Filming for this season began on May 16, 2019, when fans of the show spotted the racers in Hà Giang Province.[2][5]

On May 28, 2019, Season 3 winner and Season 5 runner-up Hương Giang posted an image of a Race clue envelope onto her social media leading to speculation that she would appear on the season.[6] Later that day, images surfaced of Hương Giang checking teams into the Pit Stop at Da Lat.[7] It was later revealed that Hương Giang would be temporarily talking over the role of host due to Song Luân having work commitments.[8] Hương Giang is the second former racer that returned to host the show after Toya Montoya, who hosted two seasons of the Latin American edition after competing on the third season. Hương Giang is also the third woman, after Toya Montoya and Tara Basro, and the first member of the transgender community to serve as a Race host. This season is also the second time a show has changed hosts partway through filming after the first season of the Chinese edition.

On June 2, 2019, the revival of the show was officially announced on the show's Facebook page prior to the completion of the season's filming.[9]

This season featured a new twist on the Express Pass. The recipients of the Express Pass could either use it to skip a task of their choosing or use it to save a team from elimination, much like the Salvage Pass.

Casting

On June 6, 2019, the cast was officially announced.[1] This season's cast included Miss Universe Vietnam 2017 H'Hen Niê, Miss Universe Vietnam 2015 runner-up Đặng Thị Lệ Hằng, Miss Vietnam 2014 Nguyễn Cao Kỳ Duyên, actor Bình An, Vietnam Idol Season 2 winner Quốc Thiên, Miss Vietnam 2016 Đỗ Mỹ Linh, and model Lê Xuân Tiền. Singer S.T Sơn Thạch previously competed on The Amazing Race Vietnam 2013 with stuntman Lâm Hùng Phong but was part of the first team eliminated.[10]

Marketing

Sting Energy Drink, the primary sponsor of the previous seasons, returned for this season.[9]

Additional tasks
  • At the start of the Race, teams had to search the nearby hills for a hidden clue.
  • At Xúa Vừ Homestay, teams had to randomly chose a number that corresponded to a pig and then had to paint a provided design onto that pig to receive their next clue.
  • After painting their pig, teams had to ride a motorcycle to their next clue, which instructed teams to hike down 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) to Mã Pí Lèng B Village, where they had to perform one of four randomly selected village chores. The first chore required that teams assemble a stone wall between two flags high enough to reach a rope. The second chore required that teams cut a marked section of grass, bring it back to the village, and then chop up the grass to feed it to the cattle. The third chore required that each team member fill a basket with cow manure and use the manure to fertilize corn. The fourth chore required that teams grind corn. After completing their chore, teams would receive their next clue.
  • At Mã Pí Lèng Pass, one team member had to rappel into the pass, retrieve half of a clue, and climb back up a 60 metres (200 ft) ladder with their clue in a basket on their back while their partner had to learn to play a tune on a bamboo flute called a sáo to receive the other half of their clue.
