Motorsports Changes

We’ve created a new MOTORSPORTS category in-game. The aim of Motorsports is to improve access to our Motorsports content and streamline career progression. As such, all Formula E and NASCAR content has been removed from the CAREER and new content will be created in the new MOTORSPORTS category. Any Gold/R$ a player has not received via removed series completion/collection completion will NO LONGER be attainable in 6.1. Any liveries that were winnable via a removed collection will be free to purchase in 6.1.

Players will keep their cars and their upgrades and can use them to complete the new Motorsport content.

New Motorsports Series

New Motorsport series will be unlocked if players own any of the cars in that Motorsport series.

Removed CAREER Series

16 CAREER series (and any of their collections) have been removed:
 * All NASCAR Career Content
 * Formula E: Showcase
 * Formula E: Experience

The removed events will no longer count towards series completion.

Motorsport Car Performance Rating Changes

Minor Performance Rating (PR) changes have been made to Motorsport cars to avoid situations where one car is less optimal (players have to upgrade more) in order to complete the same series.

The following example shows the PR changes for the Formula E cars:

SRT_01E (ABT SCHAEFFLER FE02) SRT_01E (NEXTEV TCR FORMULA 002) SRT_01E (RENAULT Z.E. 16) keeps the same PR (33.4 -> 57.1)
 * Old PR (33.3 -> 56.9)
 * New PR (33.4 -> 57.1)
 * Old PR (33.2 -> 56.8)
 * New PR (33.4 -> 57.1)

Similar PR changes have been made to the other Motorsport cars.

Other Motorsport Car Changes
 * The prices and wait times of Motorsport cars have been updated to make them more consistent.
 * 7 Motorsport cars will drop from their cost from 700-750 gold to 500 gold. Their upgrade prices will remain the same.
 * 4 of the Motorsport cars have had their service time reduced from 4 hours to 3 hours.
 * The NASCAR Academy cars have been changed to better reflect their minimum Performance Rating.
 * NASCAR Academy Chevrolet SS price will increase from R$ 30,000 to R$ 200,000. Upgrade prices and upgrade wait time have also increased. Service wait time will remain at 10 min.
 * NASCAR Academy Ford Fusion price will increase from R$ 25,700 to R$ 400,000. Upgrade prices and upgrade wait time have also increased. Service wait time going from 1 min to 20 min.
 * Sunoco Toyota Camry rice will remain the same at R$ 720,000. Service wait time has been reduced from 2 hours to 30 min.

Other Changes
 * A new RACE button has replaced the old CAREER button on the right side of the Home menu. Now instead of guiding you to a series for your selected car it will take you straight to that series. The name and location of the series has been added so you have a good idea where you are going to end up when you hit the button.
 * Due to the Career Goals providing mixed success at 'advancing your racing career', taking up a significant portion of the main menu and occupying too much of Agent Natalia's time we have removed the feature. Natalia will still offer the usual double fame bonus and organize the occasional lucrative special event.
 * With the introduction of Motorsport Groups we've taken the opportunity to update the driver level unlock requirements for multiple features. If you have already unlocked content or a feature, it won't be re-locked again. Driver Level is just one way of unlocking Career Groups, you can also unlock them by completing preceding series or winning/buying a car to unlock its bonus series.
 * Amateur - At game launch
 * Pro/Am - Driver Level 12
 * Pro - Driver Level 24
 * Expert - Driver Level 34
 * Master - Driver Level 44
 * Elite - Driver Level 52
 * Legend - Driver Level 60
 * NASCAR - Driver Level 14
 * Formula E - Driver Level 20
