    3PA partnership to release Formula E from Mak Corp and hopefully something with Vulkan or DX11 to help optimize performance. Possibly more along the lines of 3PA partnerships or the ever-popular to be announced officially sanctioned virtual series.

    I'd love to venture a guess at Indycar but that would require updated car model, steering wheel used by most teams and above all, actually having the tracks. And DX11 likely out of the books too as it shouldn't be too big of a deal - worthy of an announcement - to convert the library (according to a source).

    Well, let's see what ... we'll see :p.

    There is definitely a graphical update of some sort in the pipework form this quote by Christopher in the Technical & Support section with regards to graphical drivers crashing;

    The extent of this 'fix', whether it's a graphical overhaul or just a simple code fix, we wait to see.

    We also have the Cloudport announcements for Seat Leon Supercup & Formula E.

    I'm also guessing 3PA Endurance Mod along with 3PA Spa.

    Updated Renault license.

    To be honest I hope for a rebranding of the title, plus some good news like Vulkan support, better car roster and tracks, etc etc
    I don't think we need a new game or DLC, we just need a complete overhaul of RF2 because in my opinion the actual content is poor (compared to other mainstream titles) but good. I will be happy if they will add the seat leon eurocup...

    btw, the logo reminds me the FIA WTCC one lol.

    My vote and hope is for a DX11/DX12 engine update. For me this would fall within category "BIG". :)

    I just looked at the logo with a pair of Real 3D glasses that I've kept from the theater, lol, makes no difference so can count out virtual reality ha ha ha

    It's got to be licence related or a partnership of some kind. Why would they rent booth space at a SIMRACERS expo if it was just "we have made the graphics look a bit more graphicy".

    They already have some kind of arrange with Reiza for content so it can't be that.

    I'm keeping my expectations in check. I like unexpected big surprises :D

    Count how many people in this thread that will be disappointed and rant like a teenager if the announcement is not what they wanted :D

    Stop creating hype :D

    Lucky people who can attend such expos.

    Any update to already existing content wouldn't be BIG but "something" so I hope they are adding something totally new.

    I'm already pretty satisfied with what we got (except still few issues online) but if they give I will accept :)

    [Dream] -graphics engine updated to unreal 4 and multiplayer service introduction as competition for Iracing [/dream]

    I know the above has about a 0.1% chance of occurring but I'll dream it for now anyway.

    Thats the problem. When you (ISI) take your mouth that extremly full with "Big" announcements, you (ISI) have to deliver. Everything below an engine update or similar, would be (IMHO) a disgrace for ISI. Just my personal opinion...

    I like the GTL2 idea a lot but surely too good to be true so I won't get my hopes up.

    Anyway, I'll play:

    Based on the logo colours and style my guess is a Manor F1 licence to provide the hybrid era F1 car thats been hinted as a possible addition since the new regs came in. There's also some history there being the ex-Marussia team.

    It's likely the new drivetrain would have to come with it which would also be a very welcome addition.

    Looking forward to the announcement in any case.
