Did we find out which 4 teams did not return for 2021 filming? Ray & Caro and Connie & Sam are pretty much confirmed, what about other 2 teams?

Cops are clearly one of them.

Ray/Caro
Connie/Sam
Cops
and I'm guessing Spencer/Anthony is the other one.

Something about one of them possibly being medivacuated, I believe.

A couple of details mentioned in the current Wikipedia article about Spencer Stone.
In 2015, several months after the train terrorist event, Spencer was attacked and repeatedly stabbed in the back with life threatening injuries to his lungs, liver, and heart, requiring emergency open heart surgery.
In November 2020, he traveled to France to give testimony in the trial of the train terrorist and three accomplices. Before he was able to give his testimony he was hospitalized for undisclosed reasons and his testimony was delayed. Note this was several months after the production suspension for season 33. BTW, Spencer and his two friends not only received the Legion of Honor from France in 2015, they were naturalized as citizens of France in 2018. That 2020 hospitalization may be relevant to the resumption of production a few months ago.

There's nothing in that quote that suggests that Spencer Stone was "medivacuated" during the TAR 33 filming or had any health issues at all. Is it possible? Sure, but that's true for anyone appearing on the show.

My best guess would be that Michael & Moe/Connie & Sam got eliminated in 2020 and did not return. Caro & Ray did not return due to breaking up and Anthony & Spencer did not return due to Spencer's health issues. Again, just my best guess! But that's what makes sense with the information that we have to me.

Agreed, which means both all-female teams made the Final Seven.

We know that Raquel and Kayla made F3 but what about twin sisters? How far they got? What do you think?

F4.  The final leg was a F4 this time.

I know we saw a 4th team but I find it very hard to believe in a season where we already have two teams who couldn’t return that we would have one less elimination before the final leg

Where did we see 4th team? I am aware only of 3 teams (flight attentands, youtube parents and Dusty & Ryan) sighted during finale leg.

I really hope their fix for the teams who couldn't return wasn't doing Australia's "stowaway thing", a team or two we won't hear about until they join the race. Probably not, but...

Elise stated in one or more recent interviews they used a way that didn’t involve additional NELs. The only way I can think of is a variant of the KOR/double length leg approach, with no check in/pit stop  so that some legs required two episodes.

Shades of Season 19 only without its one-time DEL twist.
