If it wasn't for Jacques and Josee's sabotage on the Sisters in Argentina, then I would've seen a Best Friends vs. Police Cadets vs. Ice Dancers in the final three. Everything would go the way that it was with Geoff and Brody in Carrie and Devin's place:
 * 3rd: Ice Dancers (The Ice Dancers would still be eliminated by a flat tire.)
 * 2nd/1st: Police Cadets
 * 2nd/1st: Best Friends

I think the Best Friends and Police Cadets would've been a perfect finale, because neither team had interactions (other than MacArthur framing Devin of disassembling the train in Darjeeling) with one another.
