Learn how to use the Forza Horizon 6 racing line to achieve the best times. Understand the color coding and settings.

The racing line is a visual aid that appears on your screen (HUD (heads-up display — the on-screen icons showing health, ammo and the minimap) - Heads-Up Display) during races in Forza Horizon 6. It shows you the recommended path to follow for the fastest lap times. You can customize its visibility: always on, only when approaching corners, or always off.

When the racing line is set to 'always on', its color indicates your speed and upcoming hazards:

  • Green: You can maintain your current speed.
  • Yellow: A turn or curve is approaching; you should start to slow down.
  • Red: A sharp turn is imminent; you must brake to avoid crashing.

If you choose the 'breaking only' setting, the line will only appear to warn you about upcoming turns or curves, and the constant green line will not be displayed.

Settings and Modifiers:

  • Full: 0%
  • Breaking Only: +5%
  • Off: +10%
Tips
  • Experiment with the different settings to find what works best for your driving style.
  • Pay close attention to the color changes of the racing line, especially when it turns yellow and red, to anticipate braking points.
  • Using the racing line effectively can significantly improve your lap times.
