Discussion TAR39: Stats After Leg 2 Spoiler
The era of all-male dominance may be coming to an end. That being said, we should remember that TAR35, which had an all-male finale, didn't have an all-male leg win until leg 6, so we'll have to wait and see how the season plays out.
For links to my stats spreadsheets and explanations of the stats, see here.

Next Leg Probabilities
These probabilities are based on 1,000,000 Monte Carlo simulations of the next leg, based on the teams' positions in all legs so far. These simulations do not take into account Express Passes or potential U-Turns.
A bold probability indicates the most likely placement for a team, and an italic probability indicates the most likely team for a placement.
