The time difference between featured multiplayer races should be 12 minutes

TLDR - this fits neatly in 1 hour, improves schedule predictability and flexibility.

Longer version:

Using GT7/iRacing/LFM as a reference, for each event, there is 1 track a week. Some people don’t like this, because they get bored of racing the same track for a whole week and prefer to have daily races (like in GT sport, before it was changed). There is another group who like having the same track for a whole week. because they can practice a race for a few hours early in the week, and race it later that same week.

This is where I think Forza having 5 tracks weekly shines as it gives the best of both worlds. If you like daily races, you can focus on just one and race a different one every day. There will only be 2 days when you have to repeat a track. Or if you prefer, just play the next race available and you have variety. If you prefer 1 track a week, you can just choose the one you want and only race that.

I think that having the races 12 minutes apart (10 minutes for the introductory races) will make this even better. That way each race is at the exact time every hour, so whatever your preference, you can look at the schedule and know exactly what time the races you want to do that week are.

An objection to this might be that the time isn’t enough to do back to back races, but that isn’t really a problem. 5 just so happens to be a prime number, so you will always be able to do all races in the rotation one after the other, just not in schedule order. To give examples, if we number the tracks in the rotation from 1 - 5 then we can do the below (“skip” is the earliest race you can still join after finishing a race)
If the races are short enough that you can do them back to back, you would simply do 1,2,3,4,5
If you skip 1, then 1,3,5,2,4.
If you skip 2, then 1,4,2,5,3.
If you skip 3, then 1,5,4,3,2.
The only time it won’t work is if you skip 4 races, but this case is unlikely.

The problem is too long practice time when u skip race, I like to do race back to back w/o wasting time on practice, and current system works well for this.

Also time between races depends on race length.

All the races now have 15 minutes in between regardless of length. I’m suggesting it should be 12, to make every race the same time every hour.

Based on the current 15 minutes between races, you can’t do medium or long back to back either. I don’t think the time has been chosen to control practice times. It will vary based on race length. So I doubt 12 minutes will be worse.

Based o short races that last 10 min max, u got 5 min to practice and qualify in next race, with 12 min u won’t be able to join next race at all even if u finish race in usuall 7-8 min, since event entry closes 5 min before start.

I play only open (short) multiplayer races.

It’s 2 minutes now

Oh nice, well I did not play for 3 months xd

But still that would give u no time for qualify on some tracks like Le mans, spa, Silverstone gp, and similar tracks where laps are over 2 min. Altrought some races end faster than 9min (total time including W8 for everyone to finish and time u need to got thought menu to next race) + u have to chose fuel level and tyre type before qualify. With 12 min between short races I might not be able to do any quality laps
