Only two months remain until the release of Forza Motorsport on October 10th, and after the recent deep dive into the tire model and AI improvements, a new track has been announced: The ficitional circuit is called Eaglerock Speedway, and its announcement also revealed a new car to be coming to the new Forza Motorsport.

The new track is an oval, but not a D-shaped one like many 1.5-mile speedways found in the United States. Eaglerock Speedway's shape rather resembles that of the Milwaukee Mile, although the new Forza track looks to be longer than the famous venue in the Wisconsin State Fair Park. The trailer shows only slightly-banked turns, so the track might not be a full-throttle affair for the entire lap.
There may be more to the circuit than just the oval version, though: The track map shown in the trailer also includes what looks like a large chicane in the middle of the back straight, so a road course configuration could also be part of the track, although it looks less intricate than the Daytona road course, for example - which is hardly surprising considering the size of the latter, to be fair.

14 Circuits Now Confirmed
Also new to the franchise is the 2020 Audi RS3, which can be seen running the oval course at speed in the trailer. According to Audi, the sedan's engine puts out 395 hp - though that is likely subject to change in Forza Motorsport with the series' usual tuning and upgrade options at hand.The announcement of the new Audi and Eaglerock Speedway follows the confirmation that Road America would return to the franchise's new release, raising the number of confirmed tracks to 14. You can find a full list (as of August 9th, 2023) below.
