I think physics in Horizon will stay like they were. Maybe little improvements like they did for Forza 7. Overall I´m pretty pleased with the driving experience in booth games because the cars handle pretty believable
With the amount of rallylike terrain in evidence in the footage so far, I'm sure quite a few people would be pleased if this time around Playground offered a "Disable Forza force" option for extra credits.
Forza Horizon physics are similar to Forza Motorsport physics with the addition of a higher grip coefficient on the tyres when offroad. If you had the opportunity to disable this during the wet muddy seasons then it would be more like playing a rally game.
