Changing to a bunch of non-eliminations is probably the most "fair" but it sounds like boring TV.
I'd be fine with the people giving out express passes thinking I wasn't a good team, if they were giving me the express pass. I think it's to your advantage to have other teams think you're a weak team (although I don't think that's the case here), especially if there are u-turns in this version of the race.
To me, their choice for express passes seemed weird. Both teams they gave passes to are doing fairly well. Give them to the weakest teams, rather than giving your biggest competition an advantage.
Cedric and Tychon definitely seem to be improving!

Again, once your win Leg 1 and get the express passes, give your express passes away immediately to the last two teams from the first leg. They would be fighting for survival and those passes would be gone by now and there would be no drama.
