Excitement is building for the upcoming Paris Olympics as a unique feature is set to make its debut - a purple track. Departing from the traditional red-brick clay color, the Olympic track at the Stade de France will be adorned in a vibrant shade of purple, adding a new dimension to the athletic events.
The installation of the purple track is currently underway, with workers meticulously laying down pieces of vulcanized rubber track manufactured in a factory in northern Italy. The process involves over 1,000 rolls of track being carefully unfurled and secured in place with precision, requiring a month's worth of work and 2,800 pots of glue.
