If you 'follow' the team on Farcebook you'll be aware of the issues they've been having with weather in the Payerne area, which has knocked his practice schedule into a cocked hat. I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up scrubbing a few more appearances in the early part of the display season... they're probably a good couple of weeks behind schedule.
