DRS not working/opening

Product: F1 23
Platform:PlayStation 5
Please specify your platform model. Sony PlayStation 5
Summarize your bug During a race the DRS works fine without a problem as soon as for example a red flag occurs and the race restarts I can't use DRS anymore same goes when I use flashback the DRS just doesn't work anymore, I ask the pitlane on the status of the vehicle nothing is being reported regarding the drs. I have the setting on manual I tried switching to automatic nothing happens it still doesn't work.
What is your 16 digit Report Code?
Can you please provide the name of your current internet service provider?
Which area is the bug/glitch in? Single Player
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Enter a race (my career), do a couple of laps, use flashback or wait for a red flag after the restart DRS stops working for the whole race.
What happens when the bug occurs? DRS not working/opening and the beep is not audible as well.
What do you expect to see? DRS to work/open.

    Hi, DRS is not active at the restart, IRL it can be used at the 3rd lap... Did you check it?

    Yes I know that. But the last time it happened was when I used flashback, the DRS stopped working after it for the whole race even the “beep” sound you hear doesn’t come up.

    What controller are you using? Do you have a custom map?

    In some instances a stuck button or drifting control will apply the brake and close the DRS (but you would still see the DRS control illustrated and hear the beep in the DRS zones).

    In some situations as @Nuvolarix has mentioned, DRS is not enabled.

    It's possible this is a bug, in Braking Point I have had situations where DRS has not been activated when crossing the DRS activation within 1 second of the car in front, particularly on backmarkers.

    Try a default map if a custom one is enabled. Test the controls. Post back.
