Guess that might be a personal preference.Whilst true for live(*) coverage of the Olympics(**) and Commonwealth Games, she did do other sports during last years European Championships - only appeared when the athletics started, but then took over the whole of the late afternoon/evening shift. In 2018 she was in Glasgow despite the athletics being in Berlin so I guess she maybe have done other sports then too?
*I'm sure she co-presented the whole of the Commonwealth Games highlights shows in 2018. I recall she took the lead on the athletics and Clare Balding on the other 'lead' event that day, but they then shared the rest of the show
**For Tokyo I'm sure Gabby covered for Dan Walker on one of the Sunday mornings
