China and India are the most visited countried by season (10 each).
Both countries also hold the record for the most number of official pit stops (15 each).
Only three countries have been visited three seasons on a row: India (S12,S13,S14), China (S16,S17,S18), and Indonesia (S21,S22,S23)
Portugal has the largest span between visits (18 seasons: S3 & S23)
Oceania has the largest span of not being visited by TAR (4 seasons: S14,15,16,17)
Only S2 didn't visit Europe.
Only S1 has Africa as its first continent visited.
When South America is the first continent visited in a season, the route would always go eastward except for S13.
S7 has the least number of Asia legs (1 double-length leg in India)
S1, S6, and S10 has the longest back-and-forth pattern of continents:
S1: Africa/Europe/Africa/Europe
S6: Europe/Africa/Aurope/Africa
S10: Africa/Europe/Africa/Europe
Most visited city (not counting flight connection cities(ahem.Frankfurt.ahem)): Amsterdam (5) (Every season that visited The Netherlands had to go through Amsterdam, including S19's stopover)
Seasons that have the most number of new countries visited:
S3 (11); S1 (10); S5 (9); S6 (7); S10 (6)
...and the least:
S21, S22, S23 with (0).

Countries with TAR visited three times in a row is the most population in the world
All season TAR visited Vietnam (S3,S10,S15,S22 with the exception of season 22) always begun with 12 teams! and the route marker must be changed, M/M team win in even-numbered seasons and runner-up in odd-numbered season and vice versa for F/M team, F/F team place on position which divided by 3
Genius:
A piece of info that isn't really exciting, but in TAR7 all the legs that were multiples of 3 (every 3rd leg) did not have a prize for the first placers. And interestingly, all the legs that Rob and Amber came in first all had accompanying prizes.
NMC:
Bit of a Random Fact that I thought of there:
Every season of the US Version has had at least one M/F team in the Final 3, (As of Season 23)
But has NEVER had a Final 3 that consists of 2 M/M Teams, and 1 F/F Team.
I find this funny as both Australian Seasons, and the Canadian Season has had a Final 3 Combination of 2 M/M & 1 F/F,
and neither of these seasons have ever had a M/F Team in the Final 3. :cmas10 :cmaslol

If Dave/Connor didn't withdraw from the race of leg 5, I thought F3 in TAR 22 would consist 2 M/M (hockey bros and father/son cancer survivors) & F/F (Roller Moms)
Air:
^No Maxie would still be in there, they performed better than Roller Derby.
