I don't know if this has been mentioned, but for every season that has returning players. If there is a team that got 4th in their first season they will get 2nd on the second season. If there is more than one 4th place team on the season then one of those teams will get second.

However, this curse has been broken with Leo & Jamal from TAR 31.

Here's something interesting: Tia & Fay and Uchenna & Joyce were both supposed to be on the 6th season of their respective races, got cut last second for various reasons, and were then cast for the 7th season which they won.
