Hi all,

Today we released another update for Forza Motorsport 6. This update addresses issues introduced with the NASCAR Expansion, including:

• Rolling starts have been moved back by 15 meters on the following courses: Rio Full, Rio National, Rio Coast Loop, Indy GP Classic, Indy GP, Yas Marina South, and all Watkins Glen ribbons.
  
• For lapped traffic, “Distance behind” in HUD now measures distance by meters or feet, not laps
  
• Fixed an issue with Drivatars losing collision after a rewind when the Drivatars are in a pitting state, but outside of pit lane
  
• Fixed an issue where certain players were unable to continue in career without upgrades

Thanks,
Brian

Hi folks,

Just a quick update that there is no DLC Car Pack for June in FM6. Instead, and accompanying our announcement of the Forza Racing Championship, we are releasing the 2016 #66 Ford GT Le Mans Race Car to everyone who has played Forza 6, for free starting today. Players will receive codes for the Ford GT LM via the Xbox Live message system. Note that because of the large number of codes being sent, it could take up to seven days for all players to receive their codes.

Later this week we'll be launching a new Rivals event on Le Mans devoted to the Ford GT LM and look for more cool Ford-related news around Le Mans in the near future.

Thanks,
Brian

In addition to the Turn 10 Select Car Pack for Forza Motorsport 6, we have released the latest content update for Forza Motorsport 6. The focus of this content update has been on bringing three tracks in Forza Motorsport 6 back into competitive play – Monza, Catalunya, and Circuit of the Americas. The team at Turn 10 has worked to address numerous issues on all three of these tracks. For example, at Monza, the chicane at Turn 4 has been adjusted to more accurately distinguish between clean and dirty driving lines. In addition, the tire wall at Turn 4 has been moved to alter the driving line and better prevent corner cutting.

With the upcoming launch of the Forza Racing Championship, today’s content update for Forza Motorsport 6 represents the latest step in our ongoing commitment to make Forza 6 the home of competitive racing on Xbox. Forza fans will be seeing additional changes coming to the game, including in next month’s content update in August. Look for more details on the Forza Racing Championship soon and for details on future content updates in the weeks and months to come.

In addition to the new cars we added the game with the Summer Car Pack, we also made some specific improvements to certain tracks in Forza Motorsport 6, including Hockenheim, Prague, Lime Rock Park, Rio, Silverstone, and Watkins Glen. These improvements, along with changes made in last month’s content update for Forza 6, are part of our ongoing effort to improve the racing experience in the game.

I just booted up and don't see a new update. An update of that size (well over twice the size of a regular car pack) could be something with your cloud save reinstalling previous updates.

Hi all,
Today we published an update for FM6 to fix issues with spectating public lobby races, which were inadvertently introduced with our 2/21 esports update. While we believe the fix to be in place and verified, we've seen at least one possible report of there still being an issue with spectate.
Please keep us posted if you see additional issues with spectating in FM6 public lobbies.

Thanks,
Brian
