:wohoo:

EDIT: Coincidentally, their respective seasons are divisible by 5.

Thank you. :waves: Never occurred to me there were so many teams with different foreign descents in the past several years.

I think so far Caroline & Jennifer are the only team to visit all the countries in United Kingdom.

They did visit Scotland and Northern Ireland in TAR22, England and Wales in TAR24.

RaceUntilWeDie:
TAR 4 & 21's Final 3 took the longest to win a leg. (None of the Final 3 teams in those seasons won a leg until Leg 6).

TAR 6 & 15's Final 3 did not actually place in the Top 3 in a leg together until Leg 11 --- the longest for a Final 3.

TAR 7's Final 3 were in the Top 3 together in 6 legs - the most for a Final 3.

RaceUntilWeDie:
There have been 74 NEL's through the past 24 seasons (this excludes all fake Pit Stops in which the "leg was not over;" however it does include the legs with no rest period beginning in TAR 18).

0 NEL's have occurred on a leg with 12 teams remaining.
3 NEL's have occurred on a leg with 11 teams remaining (15, 18, 19).
0 NEL's have occurred on a leg with 10 teams remaining.
3 NEL's have occurred on a leg with 9 teams remaining (17, 18, 22).
6 NEL's have occurred on a leg with 8 teams remaining (6, 16, 19, 20, 23, 24).
10 NEL's have occurred on a leg with 7 teams remaining (5, 7, 10, 11, 14, 17, 19, 21, 22, 24).
12 NEL's have occurred on a leg with 6 teams remaining (1, 2, 6, 8, 10, 11, 13, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23).
16 NEL's have occurred on a leg with 5 teams remaining (1, 2, 3[x2], 4, 5[x2], 8, 9, 12, 14, 15, 19, 20, 22, 24).
18 NEL's have occurred on a leg with 4 teams remaining (1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11[x2], 12, 13, 15, 16, 17, 21, 23).
6 NEL's have occurred on a leg with 3 teams remaining (1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 9).

Out of the 18 NEL's that have occurred on a leg with 4 teams remaining, 11/18 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).
