Because it was a TBA - was never suggested it might be Bahrain that I can recall.

Was always a possibility that a TBA could be an Australian round - totally agree with your earlier post that an offshore round costs the teams less but when a round is TBA, any team not budgeting for the possibility of it being an Oz round would be foolish.

You should also bear in mind that many teams have Australian sponsors who see less benefit in offshore rounds & pay accordingly - some teams MAY puck up some additional income now that the TBA location is known.
