Not sure what to say... the feet of the young lads are awash in red light. How can you possibly expect accurate skin tone?  In such an extreme situation, if you're not going to eyedropper the WB in post then shoot a gray card and ether adjust in camera or apply in post.

quick update, I am seeing good improvement using the camera profile in LR , I am used to adobe profiles as I like them better than my canon and even M9 profiles. now with M10R things are different , using the camera profile under the name LEICA M10-R seeing changing in white balance and color of skin improved too.

If you are under-exposing the main subject so much how do you imagine WB can compensate?  With those changing lighting conditions of exposing for back lighting there is nothing the camera can do, only the photographers knowledge can kick in to compensate. It seems you you think the M10R is a 'miracle camera', it isn't.

Damn. I’ve been looking at the M-10R pics looking for that miracle too.
