I'm not sure why so many Amazing Race fans are having meltdowns over the super alliance in Season 32 making the final three when the same exact thing happened in Season 1. In Season 1, Rob/Brennan, Frank/Margarita, and Joe/Bill had an alliance early on and though it eventually fell apart, all three teams eventually made the finals.
Likewise, in Season 32, Will/James, Riley/Maddison, and Hung/Chee made an alliance early on that helped them eventually make the finals. Their alliance was much stronger than the super alliance in Season 1, but there's no doubt that it definitely existed.
There have also been other super alliances in subsequent seasons that resulted in packs of friends making the finals of each season. Maybe some of the complainers aren't old enough to remember that, but I certainly am and I would encourage fellow superfans of The Amazing Race to do a little remedial homework before they start howling about things being unfair and unprecedented. The superalliance concept has been happening since The Amazing Race was born in 2001 and either people forgot that or they're not old enough to know that. Either way, the complaints about Season 32's superalliance are ridiculous. #amazingrace
