I've always thought that TAR's strongest legs occur in the middle of the race, and that usually the finale is poor in comparison to the rest of the season. I will admit that TAR 12 has fixed a lot of the problems involved. Now if only the tasks on the final leg were more challenging (I really want to see another TAR 14-style memory task, that looked brutal).

I though TAR12 was tricky enough? memory + puzzle solving IN THE COLD *brrr*

TAR 12 was very tricky too. But TAR 14 had hundreds of surfboards and confounded pretty much all the teams remaining.

:groan: forgot that aspect of it. those memory tasks sure were challenging!
Guess TAR16 would be remembered as having some of the easiest tasks ever... First the coin tossing (non-)speed bump practically next door to the RB, and then the memory task.... they could have at least made it tougher by having psychedelic styled posters of SOMETHING from each leg (instead of just e eliminated teams & NELs) and mixing them in with other similar posters....

TAR16 joins TAR4 and TAR11 as the only seasons to not have at least 2 of the top 3 performing teams in the final 3.

Other than being the worst performing winning team ever, Dan & Jordan are also the second-worst performing team to ever finish in the top 2.
Only Teri & Ian from TAR3, who are 53 combined years older, finished worse in the top 2 with a 4.5384.
