Since they got into HCMC at night there is a possibility of an HOO. Hope not though would love to see a Vietnam night leg!

So is it confirmed that Art & JJ are out first followed by Leo/Jamal and Rupert/Laura?

Two of them are definitely out i think. I want to say all 3 but We still don't know if the first 3 legs were all elimination legs or there was a NEL and one of those three was just behind/ahead of the "top 8" pictured.

If Leo and Jamal are indeed out, i wonder why and how they ****ed up. I thought they'd go far again.

I'm looking at the picture again and can we talk about how it feels so random and kinda awkward to see Bret and Chris with this group? Chris in particular doesnt look like he fits with them lol.

wait, question: have we confirmed where the group shot with the 8 teams happened? because it does not seem to match the Siem Reap exterior from what I've seen
I'm baaaaaack!

Must be Luang Prabang airport, before they flew to SR. Taken about 12 hours ago (see Colin's scar on his forehead)

no you're right it is Luang Prabang; checked flightstats for LPQ-REP: https://www.flightstats.com/v2/flight-tracker/route/LPQ/REP?year=2018&month=6&date=16&hour=12

and the flight left at 2:40 pm so they couldn't be in Siem Reap at 1:51 pm (plus the railings on top match the design of the airport, so this must be around the time they were boarding the airplane?)
I'm baaaaaack!

I predict that they should spend at least 4 legs in Asia, 6 legs in Europe, and 2 legs anywhere else.

Still holding out hope for Australia. 6 legs in Europe is too many and I'm tired of Middle East and Africa.

Yeah, maybe they can have 2 legs in Australia? They last visited Australia in S18, and New Zealand in S22.

Do we have a leg in Siem Reap?
Maybe the absence of signs is a sign.

The Race has gone to Siem Reap already, and also visited the Angkor Wat. They visited the city and landmark in season 13.

6 Legs in Europe is too much. 4 Legs in Europe at most would be good.  Still hoping for Oceania though.

Need a clarification, they are really heading to Ho Ch Minh? Vietnam again?

Do we know if HCMC will host a leg? Wouldn't it be cool if the race went from Japan -> Laos -> Oceania?!

The race has already been to HCMC twice.

Cambodia visits: 2 (13, 15)
Vietnam visits: 6 (3, 10, 15, 22, 29, 31)

4 legs in Asia, 2 legs in Australia, 3/4 legs in Europe, and 1/2 legs in South America would be the best case scenario.

There are 2 direct flights to Sydney from Ho Chi Minh served by Vietnam Airlines & Jetstar Airways.

Also HCMC has also been last visited in season 15, I could see the city being a destination, but I highly think HCMC will be a connection.

Working against an Oceania visit is the fact that there's never been a cold weather Australian (or even NZ) leg.

I would honestly love a cold weather Oceania visit, it has never happened before.

If they are connecting to Singapore via Ho Chi Minh, then that opens up even more access to Oceania. They have direct flights to Australia, New Zealand and Fiji.
