FH6 Seasons Guide — Weather, Events & Strategy

FH6 rotates through four seasons weekly (Thursday 2:30 PM UTC). Each season changes the map, weather, and available events. Here's what to expect and how to prepare.

Spring

Spring is the most balanced season. Roads are mostly dry but occasional rain showers create mixed conditions. Dirt trails are muddy and require rally tires for grip. This is the best season for dirt racing and trailblazers.

Recommended cars: Subaru WRX STI S209, Ford Bronco Raptor, Lancia Delta S4

Summer

Maximum grip season. Dry roads everywhere — this is when you should tackle your hardest road racing events and speed zones. Slick tires work at full efficiency. Street Scene events are easier without rain reducing visibility.

Recommended cars: Porsche 911 GT3 RS, Ferrari 296 GTB, Koenigsegg Jesko

Autumn

Wet roads reduce grip by approximately 15-20%. Street Scene events are harder — painted lines and metal surfaces become slippery. Leaves on roads in forested areas act like a low-friction surface. AWD is strongly recommended.

Recommended cars: Audi R8 V10 Plus, Nissan GT-R Nismo, Lamborghini Revuelto

Winter

Snow appears at higher elevations and northern regions. Coastal and desert areas may remain dry. This is the hardest season for road racing — switch to AWD with snow tires or focus on off-road events where snow tires also help.

Recommended cars: Subaru WRX STI (snow tires), Hoonigan RS200, Ford F-150 Raptor R

Seasonal Festival Playlist

Each season brings a new Festival Playlist with exclusive rewards. The playlist resets every Thursday. Complete all four seasons in a series (4 weeks) to earn the Series reward — typically the rarest car of the month.
