Safety Car Phase: Overtake & Notification Issues with Disqualification
Product: F1 24
Platform: PC
Please specify your platform model: Steam
Summarize your bug: After a Safety Car is deployed during a race, I can freely overtake other cars without receiving a warning or penalty, and AI-controlled cars attempt to overtake me as well. It feels like the game doesn't register my car correctly during the Safety Car phase. Additionally, I receive no race notifications (e.g., about the Safety Car, penalties, or warnings), and immersive pit stops and track limits are completely absent. At the end of the race, I am disqualified without any explanation.
