Learn how to use the Forza Motorsport racing line to improve your lap times. Understand its color coding and settings.

The racing line is a visual aid that appears on the track to guide you. It is recommended to follow this line to achieve the best possible time in a race. You can configure the racing line to be always on, only appear when approaching corners, or be always off.

When the racing line is set to always on, its color indicates the optimal speed: green means you can maintain full speed, yellow signifies an upcoming turn or curve where you should start to slow down, and red appears at sharp turns, indicating you must brake to avoid crashing.

If you choose the 'breaking only' setting, the line will only appear to warn you of upcoming turns or curves, and the standard green indicator for straightaways will not be displayed. The 'breaking only' setting offers a +5% bonus, while 'off' offers a +10% bonus. The 'full' setting offers 0% bonus.

Tips
  • Experiment with the different racing line settings (always on, breaking only, off) to find what suits your driving style and helps you improve your lap times.
  • Pay close attention to the color changes of the racing line, especially from green to yellow and red, as they are crucial indicators for braking points.
  • Consider turning the racing line off for a greater challenge and potential performance bonus, once you are comfortable with the track layouts.
