rFactor 2 Online week 9 reaches the sim at a crucial time. With the longevity of Motorsport Games still up for debate, the coming weeks of rFactor 2 content will be important for the sim’s survival.
Week 9 has landed and brings a wealth of new content with the highly anticipated debut of the intermediate F3 series, starting at Monza. Alongside that, the Formula E GEN3 DLC also makes its debut at the partnering test circuit.
rFactor 2 Online has been up and running since the beginning of October. However, if you are new to the fray, let us catch you up on what rFactor 2 Online is and how to get started.

The perfect starting grid for anyone who may be new to rFactor 2 and just starting the online mode journey. This week features the same three classes of cars as previous weeks, but with slightly adjusted combinations. Attaining a silver saftey rating is achieved in these races. This unlocks access to the intermediate events.
