I guess it makes a huge differences how you do any analysis. For example, if you take only AR13 to ART20, you find as Dr. Rox indicates above that Sundays are 25% in that range of races. However, a more comprehensive analysis gives a much different picture of the days of the week for Amazing Race finishes:
AR1 4/8/01 Sunday
AR2 2/3/02 Sunday
AR3 7/7/02 Sunday
AR4 2/14/03 Thursday
AR5 2/27/04 Friday
AR6 7/12/04 Monday
AR7 12/19/04 Sunday
AR8 7/3/05 Sunday
AR9 12/3/05 Monday
AR10 6/24/06 Saturday
AR11 12/15/06 Sunday
AR12 7/29/07 Sunday
Now when you combine the data for all 20 Amazing Races, you have 9/20 = 45% for Sunday, 1/20 = 5% for Saturday and the remaining 50% during weekdays. Conclude what you wish to from this information.

I think we have to give more weight to the more recent seasons with the generally 12-leg format. We also need to consider (1) the day of the week a Race began filming, and (2) the total number of days for filming.
This season's filming began on a Saturday (local time). It does seem the filming this season has been particularly efficient, with less rest time than in some other seasons. A Friday finish would not be inconceivable to me. There's going to be disagreement about whether Amsterdam was leg 8, 9 or ten because of the incomplete information. That would also influence which day the Race might end. I suspect still that the travel from the 10th to the 11th leg is going to set up the travel for the final leg -- meaning the teams might have a long travel period to get to wherever the 11th leg is set so Phil does get ahead, and then allow Phil and the eliminated teams to get ahead of the final three teams for the final leg, So I think that the final leg this time will be between Friday and Sunday, it could set a surprise if filming ends on Thursday since it does not seem as if there was a huge amount of zig-zag this time around.
Heliox:
So although my husband left Amsterdam on Saturday his colleagues had a run in with one of the teams, while they were biking. Unfortunately when they were asked if they knew Amsterdam they just kept riding past the team when they saw the cameras. I am trying to find out description of the team that asked them.
