After the first commercial break, the racers are flying out of the Ho Chi
Minh Airport to grab taxis. In the background audio, the producers seem to
have chosen to play what sounds like the distinctive first few bars of
Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries" before switching to more generic TAR
background music.
RotV is familiar to those of us of a certain age who have seen Apocalypse
Now, where it's played on helicopter-mounted speakers during an assault on
a North Vietnamese-controlled village.
Seems like a questionable choice at best by the production staff.
