This also happens to me. I am playing on PC. After the session ends it gets stuck on loading screen saying please wait. I attached screenshots and hardware settings.

I have the same issue. After finishing full FP1 and quick practice FP2, doing a quick practice FP3 causes the game to be stuck. Reloaded career mode, it all of a sudden shows the experience points gain screen but will not move onto qualifying. Restarted the game and back to career mode. It started me at the beginning of FP3 but with no objective completed (which I did in FP1). Either retiring FP3 or finishing FP3 the game will then be stuck on loading screen with no way to progress. Restarting game gets me back to beginning of FP3 again.
Hopefully this description is more detailed.

  I have the exact same issue on Xbox Series S. I am in FP3 the programs are showing as not complete but I did them in FP 1.
  Whenever it ends it just goes to please wait.
  The error code when I pause the game still in FP3 is : VKHT-JGJC-RVHR-GMHG.
  I cant move the career mode any further im stuck in it. It would be good to know if this can or will be fixed.

Hi there!
I’m playing on PC in Steam. Same problem happened with me in Driver Career mode. I was playing FP1, after that used Quick practice in FP2, and after I wanted to go to FP3 and just skip by choosing Quick practice and then go back.
When I was back to the race weekend menu I saw that nothing changed and I can’t start playing or simulate FP3. First I go to the main menu and comeback to Driver career. I was already in garage for FP3, but I can’t simulate it to Qualifying in any way possible. After ending of session I was just stocked in “please wait” menu.

And it happens every time. I tried to retire from session, mid session save and comeback, completing the practice session, anything that could possibly let the game go through, but nothing helped me at all.

I spend a lot of time already in Driver Career mode and that’s the main reason why i bought this game so please help me!
