The recent finale of the Finnish version of Amazing Race crowned europarliament member Maria Guzenina and her friend Vilma Vähämaa as the winners, but their victory has sparked significant outrage among viewers, particularly on social media platforms like Jodel and Instagram. Many fans expressed their disappointment with the outcome, citing that they would have preferred any other contestant to win, and some commented that it felt like a "total farce."

The discontent among viewers stems not only from the choice of winners but also from allegations that Guzenina and Vähämaa may have violated competition rules during the finale. Observers noted instances where the winning pair allegedly reaped the benefits of hitchhiking multiple times, leading some fans to question the legitimacy of their victory. This backlash has contributed to a wider conversation around fairness and rules within the reality show format.

As the conversation continues to unfold across social media channels, it highlights the passionate following of the Amazing Race and how critical viewer engagement is to the show’s success. The reactions may influence the show's producers and format in the future, as they navigate viewer expectations and maintain competitive integrity within the series.
