fixedIMPROVED: Significant optimisations to in-race code and rendering to wring the most out of your playing device *IMPROVED: Track abrasion settings. We’ve updated the track abrasion settings in PRO DIFFICULTY only, reducing the durability of soft and hard tyres to better differentiate between pit strategies. *IMPROVED: Tyre wear upgrade now has a more significant effect *IMPROVED: New values for Time Trial and Checkpoint events in PRO DIFFICULTY making those events more challenging and more in line with the rest of the events in PRO DIFFICULTY. *IMPROVED: Reduced level of boost in PRO DIFFICULTY only to about half its previous effect. *FIXED: The wrong times were being reported at the end of Elimination events. *FIXED: When deleting a save slot, the selected save slot now stays selected. *FIXED: Removed the problem with wet tyres overly wearing during rain showers. *FIXED: Triggering a rewind during a tutorial message caused the game to enter a state from which it could not progress. *FIXED: Incorrect button icons being displayed on Steam Deck for resetting a car pointing in the wrong direction. *FIXED: No more pesky keyboard prompts on Steam Deck. *FIXED: Unlocked perk slots now show correct unlocked colouring. *FIXED: Braking SFX no longer ducks the game music. *FIXED: Player car bouncing and skewing sideways when leaving the pits for the second time. *FIXED: No icon being displayed on the CONTINUE button of the “not using staff perks” phone message. *FIXED: It was possible to get invites to rival races in decades that were not accessible in-game. *FIXED: When racing in CHAMPIONSHIP MODE, the track maps have been scaled so they no longer obscure split times. *FIXED: Personal best UI animation now timed correctly. *FIXED: Completing or cancelling a championship now correctly resets progress.
