In season 20, the all-female teams have never placed higher than 4th. :o

In all other seasons, even with all-female teams getting eliminated at 9th and 10th place, the all-female teams have placed 3rd place or better. :crazy:

Here is a really odd one:
The last time teams had to travel by plane on the 5th leg was Season 15. Seasons 16-21 had no flying on the 5th leg.
16: bus transported them to France for start of leg
17: drove over border into Norway
18: took train back to Kunming
19: took bus to Bangkok
20: took train to Austria, drove over border to Germany
21: Stayed in Bangladesh
Is that an odd pattern or what

The fourth leg is usually a TBC or NEL and thus on several accounts they stayed at the same place to complete the leg. This didn't happen in TAR 21 though. But considering they are trying to save costs by having two legs in the same country, it sure didn't occur that 5th leh was always non-flight for so many seasons in a row already! :ascared

Thanks for the interesting stats!!

A not so interesting one :

In all history of TAR US , we had 221 legs where a DETOUR AND A ROADBLOCK appeared

124 had the Detour before the Roadblock
97 had the Roadblock before the Detour
