I hope we will get 3 class rotation back with next update.

Medium again. Good.

Hopefully the Featured events remain Medium for future updates too, it leads to good racing and a bit of strategy.

The deadline for receiving the Mustang Tour rewards seems odd, as the final race doesn’t open until next week, but the deadline for receiving the rewards is set to the end of this week.

It’s only the second option that is closing soon (the Mustang Challenge multiplayer series), the Mustang Tour option will remain open until the event has concluded. This has happened several times (the McLaren Artura was another recent example).

Does this mean we are supposedly getting update 14 this coming week or will it be the following like the usual 4 week cycle?

So I started a race in Free-Play and gained exactly 5 places. The challenge was marked as completed, again. It stayed like that for the last 24 hours :wink:.
It seems that there are at least two possible outcomes after the re-run …
