I believe over the last couple of seasons with the "pandemic" the Aussie athletes may have had the most difficult time. First off, it is a heck of a long flight for them to get home. Secondly, I believe their restrictions were harder and it was harder to get back into the country than it was for others.

I had heard of another athlete that hadn't been home for a very long stretch of time because of this.

Not hard to imagine this also impacted Danny Ric in the same way.

Road trip? Jensen Button or Kimi. Team boss? Horner or Adrian Newey
