50/50 - Claire doesn't get enough credit. Derek would still be trying to roll an R without Claire. Claire nailed the slide puzzle. Claire's memory is insane. Both prepared for the race, but it was Claire's parents who did the training sessions. Also, when things got tough, Claire stuck with it and found a way. She was always open to making adjustments (ex: navigation). You guys are a dream TEAM. :)

I've seen some people claim that Claire did nothing and their win was solely due to DX. Total nonsense as far as I'm concerned. Without her navigation skills they would have been screwed.

Claire did bad navigation though, if you watch the recaps you should remember them getting lost a lot. It wasn't until they had a fight that they created a good navigation system, shoring up their mistakes. They don't say who gets the credit for the fixes they implemented but if it was derek I would understand why he would have that opinion. Navigation ended up being 80% of the race so this is the major stickler... In regards to memory and puzzle claire was amazing at it but it's hard to say she was more amazing at it than she was bad at the stuff she was bad at. If let's say they break up and go on another season of TAR I would not be scared of claire but I would be scared of derek no matter who their partners are.

It’s 50/50 for sure!! From what was shown Claire’s memory was super important. And Derek your quickness in doing challenges was major especially in the finale but you did roadblocks that were more geared to your strengths. It worked perfectly

I really do agree they seemed to balance each other. Claire's memory and doing most of the navigation. Derek doing most of the driving, social, and carrying the bag. Claire getting through some challenges that were really hard for her, so that they had Derek in the position to do the final roadblock quickly.

Derek was just like, "I'm going to do this roadblock." Claire was like, "I'm going to do this roadblock, and give the editors all the storylines. 😂 Claire had some roadblocks she wasn't so good at, which contrasted the ones that she excelled at. All leading up to her having to face her fear of heights. Which is why she was the roadblock main character. Derek hardly struggling on roadblocks wasn't giving the storylines, but it did help you all secure the win in the end.

I’m interested to know Nicole’s answer on which RTV is harder esp since Nicole/Victor made it pretty far in TAR as well. I don’t usually comment on KZitem videos but I feel compelled to this time because of the multiple negative comments from accounts that are so obviously created from that 1 creepy stalker. I’m sure those who followed Derek and Claire on Twitter knows exactly who is behind these accounts. That stalker have started ramped up their harassment on everywhere no doubt caused by the two of you winning TAR recently. I don’t know who they are trying to fool with their comments but it takes a good load of foundation, trust and communication between you two to be able to last this long after BB, then to go on and win the freaking TAR. Just wanted to let you know that there is a silent audience out there supporting the both of you as well! ❤

Long time viewer first time commenter - Claire, so glad to hear you're interested in volunteering! You might want to check out The Trevor Project, they do a lot of volunteer work/counseling for LGBTQ+ youth. A lot of the youth who reach out don't have a lot of support in their personal life, and we work as crisis intervention and connect them to more long term resources. I've been with them for about two years and it's been really rewarding work! Actually meant to say something when you said you were looking for places to donate - it would be great for either! Let me know if you have any questions. Great watching both of your as always

Teams that don’t train for steep stair climbs, or swimming challenges, or learn to drive a manual transmission…..a lot of things set apart teams in the Amazing race. And practice navigating/map reading is obviously important too. Even though challenges in the Race will be different because of destination, cultural events, it does seem like there is a lot of training that will give a team a big advantage for the Amazing Race. Pen and Kim Holderness posted a video showing their training before the race. Seems like it paid off! 😊

Sounds sad but you meet a wide range of people. And you can totally fit it to your schedule and your area. I have driven several thousand times (they count each way) and still drive. And there are happy endings. But there is also volunteering with animals at shelters, rescues, rehabs. You probably could find some way of working with birds, even, or marine mammals, obviously with cats, dogs, rabbits. The bigger organizations would train you, so you learn a lot Lots of possibilities and I know you will bring so much good energy and humor, no matter what you choose.
