There will be fixes for issues like the game becoming unresponsive when returning to Open Practice in Featured Multiplayer after resuming from a suspended state or crashing after skipping Practice when exiting and re-entering an event. Players can also Skip Practice from the pre-race menu in Career Mode.
You can also save after finishing Practice, thus being able to return later to a series. There will also be more details for projected finishes in Challenge the Grid, while the Featured Multiplayer events for Hockenheim will have the correct lap count instead of just three laps.
