- The race detector's model for channel operations now more precisely
- follows the <a href="/ref/mem">Go memory model</a>. As a result, it
- may report now races that it previously missed.
+ Go 1.16 fixes a discrepancy between the race detector and
+ the <a href="/ref/mem">Go memory model</a>. The race detector now
+ more precisely follows the channel synchronization rules of the
+ memory model. As a result, the detector may now report races it
+ previously missed.
