They have the most dysfunctional breakdown in two of their races :funny: Their Lijiang leg is probably the worst performance of any team in the history of TAR, other than Dana & Adrian. :groan:
Wadsy:
I dislike KOR legs being counted as two separate legs.
I preferred the format before TAR18 where a TBC leg and it's second half were counted as one leg, rather than a non-elimination leg without a penalty. That's another thing I dislike - no Speed Bump for the team who finishes last on one of these legs. To this day I still don't get why they ever though this twist was good, because it isn't.
TAR 32 actually did it right.... until I find out there was no third NEL. Had there still been one, this season would have marked the first time since TAR 10 to do it the way I preferred.

I still cannot tell the difference between twists repackaged as something new too. A double-length leg versus Keep-On-Racing, and the "no-rest legs", they're all the same to me. Don't know why the naming comes off as so complicated. The Mega Leg naming makes sense because there's no Pit Stop at the midpoint, but the other two I'm lost on.
Wadsy:
It would even be fair to say TAR 6 and 10's double-length-leg was also a super leg. Well, it also depends because on TAR 32 there was literally no rest period in the middle, whereas the other two seasons kind of did.

So what is your opinion towards the TAR14 one? That one also doesn’t have a rest period between the two half portions.
Personally, I think double-length / KOR / Megaleg should all be counted the same for placement standardisation purpose. Though where the leg Midpoint should be counted as for TAR 6 / TAR 8 Canada and TAR 32 is arguable.
