That would be my favourite F3 as well. And I agree with you Kisha and jen are almost non existent, we rarely see them at any length at tasks ans they have the fewer interviews

Ditto, except I'd rather Z/J leave first :P

This is nothing personal but Zev has to do at least 1 to 2 more Roadblocks if the Roadblock count for this season is 6. (Do we know if it's 7?) Remember how Zev screwed up the Zodiac Roadblock in China? I don't know if it's fair to say this but whenever Zev's doing the Roadblock i'm pretty worried for the team if it's a tough RB.
Same for Mallory as well.. not saying that she's the slower one in the team, but she needs to do at least 1 to 2 more and it could be detrimental if it's a physical RB and Gary can't do it anymore.
But this is obviously not a problem for Vyxsin though.. she's like the man in the team. Vyxsin <3 :lol: :lol3:

Interesting point about both Zev & Mallory. I think that it will depend on the roadblock that is presented to them. We know each do it this time, so assuming both teams survive, it comes down to making the right choices. Gary & Mallory have it easier as they can pretty much figure out if the task will be physical or not. Zev & Justin have to decide when to risk putting Zev in. The past has been that the final roadblock involves a memory challenge of sorts. So for them it would be smart to do Zev, Justin, Zev.
DrRox:
It will be interesting to see what Production does on the RBs. There are only 11 RBs this season. So if 7 is the upper limit, then teams can do a 7/4 split. Personally, that goes a little over the line from Season 6 rule that teammates must be even. I has been stretched to 7/5 in the past. Just have to see what unfolds.
At the end of Leg 10, teams will have the following split.
Z/J 4/5
K/J 4/5
FT/BE 5/4
G/M 4/4 observed, they did use the Express Pass on one that Gary said he would do. How does Production score this one? So
could be a 5/4 split
K/V 4/5
If a 7/4 split is okay with Production.......then after this week, no team is in danger of someone HAVING to do a RB. If Production has told them that it must be a 6/5 split......then both teammates will have to do one of the remaining 2 RBs.
Jobby:
I always remember the 7 RB (for season 10 and 16... not sure about others) was in place because there were 12 RBs in those 2 seasons.. with 11 this season.. it might really be 6-6.
DrRox:
Not real sure, but I thought TAR 10 had 13 RBs, so the 7/6 split would be mandatory. I think that one of the RBs was not aired though, so we only saw 12.
georgiapeach:
I think it was always a +1 for the unevenness or to account for FF's, etc
Not a 7/5 but in an 11 team season, not more than 1 more.
