Not confirming anything…that’s an actual image of the entrance at the track…lol.

Well my bet is that even if Sebring is the next track. That sign will be now where to be found on the “newly scanned” track.

Understood. Sorry for that.

Because of the 24h du Mans (24h of le Mans) being in line with the next update, I think the next recycled track will be the Bugatti Circuit layout of Le Mans:
I’d prefer anything else. Used to live in Long Beach went to the race once, the rest of the years we left town. It’s too crazy, can’t even leave your house due to traffic for the entire weekend…

When I lived in LA some years ago, I made it a point to make it down to the race every year. Loved it. Especially when you’d get ALMS and Indy on the same weekend. Always tried to get seats right near the hairpin before the start finish straight. The Toyota celebrity pro-am race was a personal favorite…bunch of B-list actors (a few A-listers!) in Scion FR-S’s (and later the 86 or GT86 or whatever they wound up being called), hustling around with pro drivers starting 30 seconds down, trying to hunt them down…good times!

There’s one other thing: i never gt a chance to drive at sebring. I drove at COTA, nürburgring, bathurst, silver stone, etc; but no sebring.
The Bugatti circuit isn’t a new track. If that’s all we get it’s a total cop-out as far as getting a “new” track.
As far as LA goes, I drove through LA once, why would you want to leave your house?

A slightly tenuous link, since the Bugatti circuit plays absolutely no role in the 24hrs at all apart from sharing a portion of the track (if the situation was reversed and we had Bugatti but not Sarthe then it would make more sense, but we already have the 24hr circuit).
Also, Bugatti is boring as bat excrement, I’m sure 99% of the player base would prefer Sebring/Road Atlanta/Bathurst over it

yeah, it’s different when you literally live walking distance to the stands… Forget about sleep the week leading up to it due to setup and practices. You are kind of trapped downtown lol
Sebring is a fun track IRL… used to do track days in my golf r when I lived in FL 10 years ago.

I hope the delay in bring Bathurst to FM is because they are doing the original layout as well like they did with Laguna Seca. The original Conrod Straight doesn’t have The Chase and goes from Forest Elbow all the way down to Murray’s Corner.
Interesting, that signage was introduced prior to the launch of the game.

When I used to watch the race on free to air the sheer amount of Xbox ads for Forza was insane, the cost would have been 7 figures
What’s the most voted track in the polls? 9 months after release, you’d think they’d be relying on those polls now to decide what to add surely.

Tsukuba would be the easiest and therefore laziest track so that would be my guess

Reminds me of an old John Lenon song about a dreamer…
On to the track list: in keeping with the pace, COTA is the 11th track on the list. It’s been their favorite number in the past so I’m saying it’s the track we’ll see.

Donington was always a favorite of mine back in the MotoGP days. It would be a nice addition and a brand new track to the game.
