Player's F2 car exits garage in qualifying with wrong fuel load on Career Mode

Product: F1 24
Platform:PC
Please specify your platform model. PC
Summarize your bug Player's F2 car starts "Full Qualifying" mode with wrong fuel load
What is your 16 digit Report Code? GVED-CRTG-PXPT-STBD
What peripherals are you using? Please list the exact make and model. Thrustmasters T150 Pro
Can you please provide the name of your current internet service provider? Orange
Which area is the bug/glitch in? Single Player
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Start a Career mode in F2 and select Full Qualifying mode as well as both Sprint and Feature Races.
What happens when the bug occurs? The player's car starts with 9 laps of fuel the qualifying session, which makes it totally unfair against AI cars since they exit the garage with the correct fuel load (around 3 laps). Also, you are unable to change the fuel load in the garage, which is unrealistic in qualifying. I think this happens because the game thinks you are starting the Sprint race already and it loads your car to that amount.
What do you expect to see? I expect my car to exit the garage with 3 to 5 laps of fuel maximum. Or, alternatively, to be able to select the fuel load in the FP and Qualy sessions, as it happens in real life.

I already explained everything. This is a major glitch, since you cannot change the qualifying format in F2 once you start your career save because of the way load screens work this year compared to F1 23, which is a completely separate glitch that I'm reporting right after this one.

This glitch forces you to guess how many time you lose with those extra laps of fuel as well as guessing how much AI level you should reduce in order to compensate that loss. I did a race in Jeddah, qualified P20 a second behind the leader and finish the feature race with a win and the fastest lap by over a second. So I guess the loss in Jeddah at least is 2 seconds, but I have no way to know this information before the qualy so I can modify AI level.

I checked the onboard cameras in driver's view and saw that the wheel display of the AI said 1.x laps of fuel in every car while mine said 9.7 at the beginning of the flying lap.

  • Had the same problem on F1 23 on PS5, thought I was the only one to have this problem because nobody talked about it. I drove for Alfa Romeo at the time and everything was good until one race where they gave me a wrong fuel load, I thought this is intentional, kind of like an error made by engineers but still I found it strange, also after that race they havent gave me a right amount of fuel load. Now, just like you and with same settings, I am playing Career mode in F1 24 and started in F2 and problem is still present, there was only 1 race where they gave me a right amount. At one point I really started to believe that it is intentional to slow you down, even tho I play against 92 AI Difficultly.
