    Josh & Brent's win is one of those Race moments that I rewatch from time to time. It's just so gratifying to see them win it all at the end after what they endured starting the Russia legs. Speaking of which, the story line of the latter half of season 21 was just TAR perfection. Even though the tasks were not the best, the final 6 that season and all that happened (airport delays for Abbie & Ryan and Josh & Brent and their odd camaraderie, James & Abba losing their money and passport, Natalie & Nadiya inventing 'burning the U-Turn board' strategy and executing it while not even having to get their hands dirty, Abbie & Ryan at the organ detour, Josh & Brent's vow to win, Natalie & Nadiya's downfall, the Hello-Goodbye Roadblock) is why I watch and love the Race.

    I don't like them as a winner, I don't like them as characye4s but I will say that their win is an important one for TAR history. (to me) they're the absolute cringiest team (especially among GREAT castings with the Twinnies, the Chippendale, the Rockers) but their win shows that consistency and season-wide "strength" doesn't really matter in TAR. what matters (and have always mattered) is running a perfect leg at the FINAL leg. that's all that matters. get to the end, and win. I still cringe everytime I think about them but they earned their spot at the finale and deserves their win. Again, they're SUPER WEAK racers and characters, but that's not what TAR is for.

    The best winner of all time is Zach from season 3. He is the only one who won against 23 opponents. He participated in 1 of only 5 seasons with 12 teams of 2 and is the only player to win not only against 11 teams of 2, but his teammate as well (he still had to share the money poor guy). The patience and hard work he showed throughout the season makes him the best winner of all time in my opinion.

    Carrying a team to victory is what someone like Messi does. This poor guy didn't carry the "team", didn't even carry dead weight, he carried weight that was constantly pulling in the opposite direction. Seeing his patience just growing to absurd levels first in Switzerland, then Singapore and culminating with Vietnam... i just felt for the guy. If there was ever a nice guy who deserved to finish first, it's him.

I felt bad for Brooke & Robbie after they earned their spot fighting from last to 1st with a Speed Bump.

That or if their dysfunctional partners like Colin & Christie from season 5 or Logan & Chris from season 27 they didn’t deserve to win either

    That’s how I feel about Justin/Diana. They figured they were better than everyone else. But, when they lost to Kelsey/joey, he was mad. He didn’t care for 2nd place at all. He wanted 1st. That was only because he thought because they had already won 7 legs, they “deserved” to win the million. He received his just desserts…🤣

    Race performances are objective, but averages don't matter. If you ask me for "Best/Worst Winners", I'm going to think of who I enjoyed watching the most. To me, good winners have a story to tell and are likable. Josh and Brent are a legendary winning team because of how many close calls they have and for the effect it has on teams calling back to them when things look bleak.

  • @dylanotto949

    I will say thank god this is based on stats cause I could name some really terrible winners. S3 Flo and Zach. Mostly because of the former. She was terrible to watch, barely did anything besides complain the entire season, and peolle only remember her in a 'positive' mannee because they laugh about her diet coke joke. S6 Freddy and KKKendra - Kendra was one of the most racist people I remember from the show. She hated basically anywhere non European, and I honestly wish production had been more strict with that kind of behavior, ESPECIALLY when teams are visiting Senegal's House of Slaves. S11 Eric and Danielle - Lets combine two teams people felt indifferent towards. I wasnt shocked they ended up breaking up from each other. S28 Dana and Matt - Terrible people? No. Hinestly this is more a complaint about the lack of footage on them for most of the season outside of a fight in Dubai. It doesn't help when most people are mad that Bernie/Ashley, Sheri/Cole, and Brodie/Kurt lost over them. Again, due to screentime. It was hard to connect with the team. S29 Brooke and Scott - Broke praticalky begging people to do her roadblock is just...ugh. congrats to Scott cause like Zach he had a really bad female counterpart who seemed to only care about herself.

    I couldn't get a read on most of the last-minute teams either especially because all of them were strangers and we're forced to like certain ones when they never had an existing relationship beforehand? I doubt more than half of them are still talking to each other anymore. Editing was poorly done as well throughout that season. Sometimes I wish that strangers and dating season were erased from my memory.
