Some interesting (and some not so interesting) facts and records!
cbacbacba1:
all three 'allstars' seasons have one female team who previously placed 4th in the final 3
all 3 'allstars' season have 2 previously 4th place teams in the final 4..
SamualDude:
This "all stars" season (so far) has had the most teams repeat their placing from their previous season with Leo & Jamal in fourth and Margie & Luke in eighth.
Dave & Connor also will at the very least tie for the biggest position jump from their previous season to their current season. So far the record holder is Zev & Justin who jumped from 9th place in Season 15 to 4th place in Season 18.

Dave- "I'm 60! I'm too old and weak to be U-Turned!"
He then proceeds to win. Are you too weak NOW? Rrrg it's frustrating.
Felix:
Brendon & Rachel are the first TEAM ever to reach the Final 3 for 2 times (Eric was the first person,but he did it with different partners).
