iRacing’s 2020 Season 4 + Hotfix 1 Deployed To Members

After a bit of extended downtime iRacing got their Season 4 update out yesterday and have deployed a super landing page on their site which has all the pertinent information on the update. It really is worth a look.

Edit – Here are the hotfix 1 release notes:

iRACING UI:

Up Next and Series

– Fixed an issue with the time display and Series Name on the Current Series and Up Next pages.
