You drive in Forza Horizon 6. F1 2020 brings its 2020 grid, its classic cars, its 22-round calendar and its race engineer, all read from your own F1 2020 install while you play.
What you get
- Any Forza race becomes a Grand Prix. Start any race in Japan and it becomes the next round of F1 2020's calendar (Australian GP → Abu Dhabi GP). All 20 drivers of the 2020 grid (Hamilton, Verstappen, Leclerc, Norris…) race you over the road you drive, and an F1-style timing tower shows the order and gaps live.
- Honest pace. Each driver goes as fast as your car's grip and top speed allow on that road, scaled by their rating (tiered by the real 2020 championship). Starts and mistakes follow their launch and consistency ratings. Beating Hamilton is hard.
- F1 2020's race engineer on the radio. He calls overtakes, your position, the gap to the car ahead, the race leader, fastest lap and podiums in his own voice, played from your copy of F1 2020.
- A full season. F1 points (25-18-15… plus fastest lap) and a drivers' championship over 22 rounds, saved between sessions.
- Hot-lap duels in free roam. Pick any F1 2020 driver, or one of its 20 classic cars (McLaren MP4/4, Williams FW14B, Ferrari F2004…), and race their ghost over 1-5 km from wherever you are. Beat a driver and you take their place in the standings.
