A racetrack includes the racing track, viewing stands, etc.; to mean "the place where races are held", the use of the one-word terms is preferable. Because these terms also mean "a track or a course on which races with horses or vehicles are run", one must thus distinguish between the racetrack or race track, the whole, with the race or racing track, a part of the whole. 6, record 3, English, - hippodrome

Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Certaines sources confondent, par erreur, la «piste de course» même (racing track, track), l'enceinte où se déroule la course, et l'«hippodrome» (race track, race course, race way), l'ensemble des installations regroupant la piste, les tribunes, le champ intérieur, la pelouse, le passage, les aires d'échauffement, etc. Ces deux termes ne sont pas synonymes; ainsi un dira «la piste de course(s) d'un hippodrome», bien que souvent on utilise «piste de courses» pour signifier un hippodrome. 6, record 3, French, - hippodrome
