“Beijing Express”: the fate of favorites Claire and Christophe in the semi-final “was decided on one foot”

They hoped to be the very first team to win “Pekin Express” twice, an adventure game in which Claire and Christophe are formidable, thanks to their complementarity and their concentration. And we saw them well on their way to getting there: in the first stages they flew over the game, Claire passed intense physical tests (for example, she broke a record by remaining 3 hours with her arm in the air) and Christophe impressed with his general culture.

Had to watch slow motion

But last night, during the semi-final, they were missing a little something. They came in third position in the last event. “ I had to watch the slow motion of the images to be sure, it happened with one foot”assured the master of the game Stéphane Rotenberg. This event was eliminatory, the residents Claire and Christophe therefore left the race at the gates of the final, which will see Alex and Jean-Claude (the grandson and his grandfather) and Clément and Émeline (the hosts of camping).

“We lose nothing”

Questioned by Télé-Loisirs, Claire does not hide her frustration: “ The day we lost, it was really difficult to accept defeat. We were a bit of a favorite throughout the whole adventure and now we’re losing nothing.. » But the pair is fair play and prefers to focus on the memories of the first victory (season 14), without forgetting to rejoice for those who would experience this same emotion. “ We had already had the chance to experience a victory (…) What comforted me was to tell myself that someone else was going to experience it too and it was beautiful and fair.. »
