    I’m raising this because it seems like a structural issue, not just a one-off week.

    I purchased the Online Racing Pack expecting regular opportunities to use it in multiplayer. In reality, most weeks there are little to no races that actually use the pack’s content. The only consistently available option ends up being the free-content sprint races.

    This creates a clear mismatch between what’s being sold and what’s actually playable. Owning the pack currently offers very limited practical value in the online rotation.

    If the intention is for players to engage with this content, the race calendar needs to reflect that. There should be consistent, recurring races that specifically include Online Racing Pack content—not just occasional or absent appearances.

    Is this something being actively addressed? And are there plans to better integrate paid content into the multiplayer schedule?

    Take into mind that there has recently been a new content drop.....KW are going to push that recently released content over what is included in the pack....

    Give it a few weeks and im guessing the Online pack content will start to feature again..

    Some of the new content (like one car and/or one track) might also be added to the Online Racing Pack later, but at the moment, it's a lot about bringing new content into ranked, like Chris said.

    ...and yet to run the "new content" you need to purchase it, that adds up to generally more than the cost of the last pack in the long run. I am by no means looking for a hand out, I pay my way and totally agree they should be paid for their work but as the OP stated, the pack has become pretty much useless in the meantime.
    your having to purchase a car or track to run in these ranked races gets really old, fast. I'm hoping, as you stated that this "new" content gets added to the pack, soon. trust me, I have spend a good amount of money on this sim, much more than I ever did to run rF2...

    He already got a respons on discord to the same questions. Quote from Luca Kita:
    "They will comeback in higher rate in the comming week(s). Issue on my side, having a lot of suggsetions outside the pack and personal ideas. But to create a better experience and make the pack worth it. We will integrate onm higher rate"

    Hi, I disagree with you (friendly way) because I think you are not right. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

    For example yesterday I was playing online and I've checked what you've mentioned on your message. I realized that from 19:25 to 0:25 you can access to all the online races with the elements (cars and circuits) included in the Online Racing Pack.

    In this 5 hour time range, only Silverstone classic, Vallelunga and a car from the DTM 2025 series where not included. All the other online races where available and have players registered. Also some races where overlapping each other, so you are not able to be in every race.

    I'm not a fanboy but I think the Online Racing Pack is a very interesting option at a very affordable price, that helps the developers to grow (and pay the bills) What you think guys? I'm wrong?
