Yields

The Yield, introduced in Season 5, allows any one team to force another team to stop racing for a predetermined amount of time. The Yield marker is placed near a Route Marker, and teams would be forced to stop at it to state their intentions to employ the Yield. If a team Yielded another team, they would place a photo of the Yielded team, along with a "Courtesy Of" photo of themselves, on the stand. When the Yielded team arrived at the Yield, they would then turn over an hourglass and wait for the sand to drain before they can continue to the Route Marker. A team may only use their Yield power once on the race, and only one team may be Yielded when the Yield is available, though the same team can be Yielded multiple times during the same Race. If a team loses their "Courtesy Of" photo, they lose their Yield power. If the team that is Yielded has already passed the Yield, the Yield is nullified.
