Some interesting (and some not so interesting) facts and records!

elthemagnifico:
Colin & Christie needed 26 seasons to return and win The Amazing Race in the returnee season, the most than any other returnee season winners:

TAR 31 -- Colin & Christie: 26 seasons (previously raced on S5)
TAR 18 -- Kisha & Jen: 4 seasons (previously raced on S14)
TAR 11 -- Eric & Dannielle: 2 seasons (previously raced on s9)
TAR 24 -- Dave & Connor: 2 seasons (previously raced on s22)

Kamineko:
Two out of three times Leo & Jamal won a leg in Season 31, which were in Japan and the UK, were the countries where Leo & Jamal were eliminated in their previous seasons

TAR 23 they're eliminated in Japan, they got 1st in TAR 31.
TAR 24 they're eliminated in the UK, they got 1st in TAR 31.

Genius:
The top 3 of the first leg of TAR1, TAR20, TAR30 and TAR31 were also the final 3 at the end.

Question: Christie has raced 25 legs and done 7 roadblocks, but she and Colin have never finished 1st in any of those legs where she completed the RB. I wonder if any other racers in winning or returning teams have the same dubious honor?

BoxOfficeR:
Colin and Christie are the only team in TAR US history to win a season they were U-Turned in.

elthemagnifico:
Up until season 31, no memory challenge task has ever appeared in returnee seasons (TAR 11 had race element final task, but it was more like great mind alike task than memory challenge task, so yeah, it didnt count)
