Kicking off the Summer Season, Stage #1 of Qualifiers on Forza Motorsport sits drivers in the legendary McLaren MP4/4, one of the most epic and superior racing cars ever built, and takes place at Belgium’s world-famous Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps, a favourite track among the most elite drivers.
In Stage #2, drivers stay behind the wheel of the McLaren MP4/4, but switch gears to Circuit Hakone, a stunning fictional track set in the serene Japanese countryside along the shores of Lake Ashi.
Stage #3 takes racers to the beloved Maple Valley track, one of the most beautiful and dynamic circuits available in the Forza franchise, blending a challenging course with incredible scenery. The Bonus Rivals Stage features the incredibly rare McLaren F1 GT, a true supercar icon, on the technical Sunset Peninsula Raceway in sunny Florida. This fast-paced circuit demands precision and pushes every racer to their limits.
Locally in Australia, the 2025 Race Days will be hosted at The Gamesmen in Penhurst, NSW – every weekend in June from 11am – 3pm. Racers will be able to put their skills to the test on Logitech’s PRO Racing Gear and the top 16 fastest drivers in the region will then qualify for the Race Day Finals.
