Hell, we've had teams miss clues and have to go back to get them and no one told them to go back. Not many clues get handed out by actual human beings, though - I think they're fairly consistent that whenever there's Phil, or in this a local, at a checkpoint, they'll stop them if they've made a mistake.

While Amazing race nerds like the people in this thread may have enjoyed it for it's "mistakes, locals, transportation playing a big role, etc"....for a casual viewer since as the people I watched it with, it was boring as shit.

That was a very challenging and fair leg that really showcased the city of Moscow. Summarines, Comminist-era history, the Subway.
Funny you forget to mention PARKS as there were about a gazillion of them being featured in this episode alone.
