I think I got it. A new online-mode where you have teams to race in the 24 hr race, that would be intense.
Since MS is American, wouldn't that read December 6th?
No foreign sky protected me,
No stranger's wing shielded my face.
I stand as witness to the common lot,
survivor of that time, that place.

But, not in France. Dec. 6th is a Sunday, so that doesn't make much sense. June 12th is the day before the race starts, which make a lot more sense.
I guess it all depends on where the ad appears. Do you have the link to the original source?

Even though Microsoft is yet to confirm the development of Forza Motorsport 3, the existence of Turn 10’s newest Xbox 360 racing title is probably the worst kept secret in the gaming industry. Back in 2008, first posters and infos were leaked, suggesting that Forza 3 will contain over 100 tracks and 400 cars.
During the past weeks, leaked infos could be found all over the place as the Forza 3 logo was “accidentally” included in a Microsoft press conference in Brazil and Amazon already listed the game’s official strategy guide.
Most interesting is a new promo shot that shows the Circuit de la Sarthe at Le Mans, together with the date 12th June 2009. That date is Friday before this year’s Le Mans 24 Hours, a break day that is typically reserved for all kinds of press conferences and announcements. Will Turn 10 announce some Le Mans related partnership for Forza 3 that day? Microsoft is already sponsoring the Peugeot Sport squad and recent rumors suggest an upcoming promotional partnership with Audi who are going head to head with the French manufacturer in this year’s race.
We don’t have to wait until mid-June for first confirmed Forza 3 facts as Microsoft is expected to announce the title at this year’s E3 expo in early June.

I didn't know about MS was a sponser, it'll most likely be Forza 3 logo all over their cars.
Did some searching and found out that MS was a sponsor in 2006 and Forza 2 was the official simulator for the entire racing season.

The following year MS officially presented Forza 2 to the European Press at the Castelet circuit

Using this info tells me that Forza 3 will be a sponsor of a racing team, the official simulator for the racing season, and the game will be revealed to the European Press and maybe fans
