F1 23 Using intel graphics error

Pulled this from what appears to be a relevant Reddit thread

Go to C:\Users\<your username>\Documents\My Games\F1 23\hardwaresettings. You'll find two files: hardware_settings_config.xml and hardware_settings_info.xml.

Open 'em up and find the device id of your graphics card in the "info" file. Once you've got that, head over to the "config" file and look for a line like:

<graphics_card deviceId="0x2520" rating="0">

Just swap out that deviceId value with the one from your graphics card. Should do the trick.

Thanks for posting this. 

However, to the OP @R8fume try updating your Intel Graphics Driver using Intel Driver and Support Assistant then the Nvidia driver using https://www.nvidia.co.uk/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-uk rebooting after each step.

Delete the hardware_settings_config.xml, relaunch the game. If detection is still an issue, then please post back. This step may well help with other games (won't hurt).
