Good to see that rumors are now popping up about Microsoft's Q4 lineup. Some people have been arguing that Q4 09 wouldn't be very good. But if F3 does get confirmed, that's a pretty big game to have. Forza isn't Microsoft's biggest IP by any means, but it should sell 2-3 million units readily, and is on par with Fable, IMO, as a franchise in terms of popularity.
Would F3 hurt GT5? Maybe. If Microsoft promotes F3 as a cheap alternative to buying a PS3 + GT5 (which could cost almost twice as much as an arcade + F3), it could hurt PS3 sales this Christmas - but not GT5 sales from consumers that already own the console.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
