Some interesting (and some not so interesting) facts and records!
Bwils927:
I really don't feel like checking, but i believe this season has the most teams in the final 5 with no first place finishes. (3: Joey/Meghan, Caroline/Jennifer, Mona/Beth) I'll check later though.
Bwils927:
TAR 13 had 3 of the final 5 that had not yet won a leg (Dandrew, Toni/Dallas, Terence/Sarah) This is the only other occurance besides this season.

Digging deeper into the NEL's..

Out of the 3 NEL's that have occurred on a leg with 9 teams remaining, 3/3 were survived.
Out of the 4 NEL's that have occurred on a leg with 8 teams remaining, 2/4 were survived (16, 20).
Out of the 9 NEL's that have occurred on a leg with 7 teams remaining, 7/8 were survived (all except 14).
Out of the 11 NEL's that have occurred on a leg with 6 teams remaining, 6/11 were survived (2, 6, 8, 13, 16, 18).
Out of the 15 NEL's that have occurred on a leg with 5 teams remaining, 9/15 were survived (2, 3[x2], 4, 5[x2], 8, 9, 22)
-Interestingly, no team has survived a 5th place NEL since Season 9's BJ & Tyler.
Mona & Beth - first team since BJ & Tyler to survive a 5th place NEL.
Out of the 17 NEL's that have occurred on a leg with 4 teams remaining, 11/17 were survived (1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11[x1], 12, 13, 15).
Out of the 6 NEL's that have occurred on a leg with 3 teams remaining, 3/6 have eventually won the Race. (2, 3, 7).

-Updated.
-Mona & Beth: second F/F team to survive a U-Turn (after Brook & Claire)
first team to complete a Speed Bump AND U-Turn in the same leg and still survive
-Joey & Meghan: first team to be U-Turned twice (as mentioned in the other threads)
-The only times when four teams were involved in a Double U-Turn (users + victims) were TAR 17 (its inaugural season) and TAR 22.
It would have been very interesting if Mona & Beth were U-Turned in Vietnam as the other teams had planned to... they would have been the first team to survive two U-Turns! :o

Bopper & Mark - first team to complete two Speed Bumps in a Race
