Evolution of Pit Stops in Forza Motorsport (2005 - 2023 / FM1 - FM8)

My most viewed existing videos lately have been Evolution of Pit Stops in Gran Turismo, F1 and NASCAR, so I decided to do another one. Here you can see what a pit stop looks like in every Forza Motorsport game, from FM1 on the original Xbox to the built from the ground up Forza Motorsport 8 on Xbox Series X/S and PC. Timeline: 0:00 Forza Motorsport 1 - Pit Stop at Road America 1:11 Forza Motorsport 2 - Pit Stop at Sunset Peninsula 2:02 Forza Motorsport 3 - Pit Stop at Sebring 2:45 Forza Motorsport 4 - Pit Stop at Laguna Seca 3:29 Forza Motorsport 5 - Pit Stop at Road Atlanta 4:26 Forza Motorsport 6 - Pit Stop at COTA 5:35 Forza Motorsport 7 - Pit Stop at Virginia 6:10 Forza Motorsport 8 - Pit Stop at Grand Oak I obviously already thought about making this video after the big success of my Gran Turismo pit stop video a few years ago but I didn't end up doing it because I thought that there just wasn't enough to see during the pit stops in Forza. But clearly a lot of people are interested in this topic because my first 3 pit stop videos keep getting viewed, so here is Forza as well. Animated pit crews were only introduced in the latest Forza Motorsport 8 in 2023, almost 20 years after Gran Turismo added them with GT4. In FM1, FM6 and FM7 there is also a menu overlay shown during pit stops. As always I put in a lot of time and effort to make the video as good as possible. Instead of just doing a stop after lap 1 in every game I did some long races in the older games, so that I could record myself pitting at the same time as the AI opponents. However, in FM4 and FM5 the AI will never pit at all, so it wasn't possible there. Since FM6 there is the option to force a minimum number of pit stops via rules, so in FM 6-8 you can also have short races with stops. FM8 also saw the addition of different tire compounds and an option to speed up the tire wear, to make it a factor in shorter races as well.
