Different from the classic season Beijing Express, in which the candidates participate to win a sum of money to share with their partners, in the “Duos de choc” edition, each team plays for a good cause. Actually, their goal was to raise as much funds as possible and donate to the associations they have decided to represent.

If the race is shorter than in the classic season, the difficulty of the event remains the same and the celebrity does not receive no special treatment. So, each team starts the race with 1 euro budget per day and per person. To get around, candidates must walk, run, hitchhike (where permitted), or use other means of transportation depending on the event (oars, kayaks, bicycles, etc.). They must also be successfully accepted by the locals in order to sleep and eat for free, at the risk of being deprived of food and sleeping under the stars.

• Immunity test
