Another great analysis. I'll be "looking forward" to these all season.

I think this will apply to a number of events this year, probably most of them. That 3rd partner is going to be make-or-break for advancing in the eliminations. Scouting will be critical - who can best identify the partnership matchup that will facilitate advancement through the finals brackets?
