Interesting! :o

The closest reverse I could think of is TAR16 from Leg 7 to Leg 8:
~Cowboys' worst to first from Seychelles to Malaysia.
~Carol & Brandy's 5th to 2nd.
~Brent & Caite and Louie & Michael switching placements.
~Dan & Jordan's 2nd to 5th.
~Steve & Allie's first to worst.

I think another close reverse is TAR2's penultimate leg, where Blake & Paige got 1st and ended up 3rd, Tara & Wil were initially 2nd and ended up 2nd, and Chris & Alex got 3rd and ended up 1st. However, Tara & Wil were bumped up into a tie for 1st due to a time credit, so it technically doesn't count.

fossil-racer:
TAR Can teams so far (does not include season 4 end results yet)
MM- 13 (3 won/7 were in the finals)
FF-12 (0 won/3 were in the finals)
MF-17 (0 won/2 were in the finals)

TARUSAFan:
Joel & Ashley of TAR Canada 4 being the 2nd team to get U-Turned twice by another team (U-Turned by Jillian & Emmett and Steph & Kristen) but still survive. The 1st one was Leo & Jamal of US Season 23, (U-Turned by Tim & Danny and Nicole & Travis) but still survive

Alon & Hen and Bar & Inna (Hamerotz Lamillion 2), Vova & Alla (Hamerotz LaMillion 4), Yael & Yosiel and Josie & Alex (Hamerotz Lamillion 5) were also U-Turned twice but through a majority vote by other teams and still survive.

Paul & Steve (TAR Aus 2) were also U-Turned twice but still survive with the 1st U-Turn being a majority vote from other teams and the 2nd U-Turn coming from Shane & Andrew.

Maanca:
Also, there hasn't been very many female couples cast overall, but Steph & Kristen are the first in a final 3

If I'm not mistaken, Steph & Kristen are the 1st Lesbian team to make the Final 3.
