When talking about the track at the coliseum, are people saying "Paris Style"? and if so, what does that mean? 

New to the sport

tia!

Peristyle is a roman architecture pillar like structures that the original colosseum arena in Italy had that the USC LA Coliseum pays tribute to having the up and down hill part of the track that the riders pass through.  They are restoring the original colosseum that claimed to be able to evacuate the place quickly with all those hoseshoe exits known as the vomitorium from the word vomere which meant to spew forth many thousands of people in minutes.  Supposedly the emperor never went to the gladiator matches but you still can see an online tour of the facility that included underground chambers and trap doors for slaves, criminals, and animals that fought in the arena i saw last night.  Not many fought to the death but a lot of bad stuff happened in the name of entertainment that makes me wanna vomere not like supercross.  

Or, if you ask a racer paris style could be about the track layout if it is similar to Bercy supercross with big jumps and it being tight racing they accomplished using the floor of the arena as opposed to just the perimeter like back in the day at the LA Coliseum appropriately with the home team named the trojans.  Peristyles provide enhanced light, space, air circulation, and beauty.

Can someone explain to me why the futures have the “victory circle” before the race? 

Prime the crowd.  Opening act.  Let the future get some visibility before the stands empty at the end of the main events.  They want to show how the future is already here bro but the races run late for some family members to watch the broadcast like if they are on the east coast 3 hours later or more in Europe.  They don’t want too many people hanging around after the races for the podium speeches but i get disappointed when people would rather beat the traffic than hear the 450 interviews of what the top pros have to say.  If I am there I am still cheering for 3rd place.

Is the Supermotocross.tv site down for anyone else?
