FM7 Track list and dynamic weather

The complete list of tracks that will be in Forza Motorsport 7 at launch was revealed this week, first in an article in Computer Bild (in German), then also in the August 18 Week in Review. Compared to the track list in FM6, there are four new tracks: Dubai, Mugello, Maple Valley, and Suzuka. Of these, the latter three have been found in previous Forza Motorsport titles, but they have been rebuilt for FM7.

Focus in the WiR is also on the dynamic time and weather in FM7. They've used the technology developed to capture the Australian sky in FH3 to capture the sky at track locations so that the sky in FM7 looks more realistic. Time can also progress as you drive, something we saw in the Nürburgring race videos from E3 where it transitioned from night to morning. Similarly, rain conditions can change as well. From my reading of the WiR, both will be dependent on what the track conditions are like in real life. In other words, it might rain on Silverstone, and you can end up racing at night at CotA, but if the track isn't usually used for night/wet racing you won't see any of that (or maybe you can race in the morning/afternoon, we'll have to see).
