I hope that won't happen because I don't want TAR to end :'(
I prefer they make it in year 2021 to celebrate the 20th year of TAR since its first air *fingers-crossed*, and make it like Survivor: Cambodia - Second Chance where fans pick which winner teams they want to race again. Also, I wish they include more old seasons of TAR (pre-HD seasons) and no repeaters like Eric & Danielle, Kisha & Jen, Dave & Connor, and Colin & Christie.

Phil did say in his podcast (episode with Rob & Brennan) that the idea isn't too far-fetched. We have a pool of 31 teams to choose from, and if enough of them can be available during the month of filming, we could have an interesting cast, especially since some winners aren't exactly Alpha Teams as some people put it.
My 11 Choices for Winners/Victors Edition:
Rob & Brennan (gained new appreciation for them from interviews more than a decade after their win)
Flo & Zach (although I don't think Zach can join the Race anymore since he's tied with the production or something?)
Chip & Kim (another popular choice, apparently)
The Linz Family (two of them of course)
BJ & Tyler (due to popular demand, though I don't actually like them)
Tammy & Victor
Nat & Kat
Ernie & Cindy
Josh & Brent
Amy & Maya
Brooke & Scott
2 or 3 MM, 2 FF, 5 or 6 MF and 2 Family, 6 Friends, 3 Couple teams
Here's the thing, these teams' story lines were pretty much complete by the end of their respective seasons. Bringing them back seems kinda redundant seeing as they got their "happy ending" already. That's why a First/Early-Outs season or Unfinished Business season for me is much more compelling. These teams either didn't get to Race that far, and will still get to experience the new aspects of the Race is it went on OR they have more to prove this time round. Second Chances season is what I want to call it.

Every winning team I know of except Flo and Zach would come back in an instant.
Some of you may not know this but the idea for such a season came long around season 5 at the dearly departed TWOP forums.
I was the one who had to get clearance for having that thread, and the idea was essentially the brainchild of the season one winners, by request to me to run with it. I wholeheartedly liked the idea then and still do. That discussion went on continuously until season 11 aired.
One subgroup of winners I would exclude would be teams that had already had a returnee season. All past winners should be teams who’ve never been back.
And clearly some teams wouldn’t return or for some real life reason, can’t.
And yes I would include Alex. His Around the World For Free three seasons were phenomenal and ground breaking use of social media of the time as a 24/7 device of filming and streaming made it something unique.
