F1 23 menu not working with Quest 3

I found a way to play F1 23 with Quest 3 from Steam. This will require specific steps in certain order. All the menus work without issues and no more 2D freezes etc.

1. Connect Quest 3 to PC with either Air Link or Link Cable. I've mainly used 3rd party cable as it is longer and provides sufficient charging and for me the Quest 3 occasionally loses Wifi connection so the wired connection is much more stable.
2. Verify that Steam VR is not yet running (close/exit if it is)
3. From Oculus menu, open "Steam VR" Application (Steam Link)
4. This starts the Steam VR on PC, wait for a few seconds to let the program start
5. From the left touch controller, press the MENU button
6. You should now see Steam/library
7. Start F1 23 from the Steam library
8. If the mouse is out-of-focus, press the right controller MENU button, select the correct desktop view, and click once the F1 23 game to activate focus

For me, it was crucial not to start the game from Steam Link / Steam VR application which opens by default. But instead once the Steam VR is running, then from the left controller open the menu and start the game.
