F1 25 - 2 player career - wrong starting grid bug

Hello, I’ve been experiencing a glitch in f1 25 two player career with my friend and what seems to be happening is that on the formation lap we are shown different grid positions and once completed it will put us in the wrong positions it seems to happen after one of us gets a penalty in qualifying. For example in Miami SPRINT qualifying my friend got a 10 place grid which he served in the sprint race. However come the Main Grand Prix after me qualifying p14 and my friend qualifying p2 but on the formation lap I was shown what the grid should look like and my friend was shown a random grid that was not the result from quali there were no other penalty’s from any other drivers and the grid was completely random. After the formation lap the game reset us into the random grid order therefore resulting in an unfair advantage for us.

Below I have outlined an image of my friends starting grid compared to mine. 

if anyone could help resolve the problem OR if EA could acknowledge this problem and help me or fix this bug it would be appreciated. It s quite annoying when it happens as it makes the game unfair. 

Thanks

Omar

    We have experienced this bug too, and it seems like there are similar conditions: 2 player career Sprint weekend (COTA), where one player gets a penalty in the sprint qualifying.

    It doesn't just affect the player positions either. In our Sprint qualy, it started dry for 1 lap and so Albon and Stroll were 1st and 2nd, but they started 10th and 19th. We qualified 4th and 5th, but started 1st and 6th.

    The problem carries over into the main race grid too. We qualified 2nd and 4th, and started 14th and 15th.

    Can this please be investigated? It sounds like a major bug that is occurring on sprint weekends and will impact the integrity of a two player career championship.

    Many thanks for this, can it also please be added to the community raised issues too? I really hope it can be resolved soon, as it's a massive issue for everyone who plays two player career.

    Any update please from the investigation?

    I've read so many complaints regarding this bug going back since the game was released. There has been an investigation previously but I can't find any confirmation to say the issue has been resolved?

    Additionally I've gone through all of the community raised issues from the beginning and it was never even added to the list? It's a massive bug.

    You simply can not have a situation in a two player career whereby the grid is completely incorrect! The immersion, integrity and fairness is completely destroyed and makes the two player career mode redundant.

    If this has been resolved can we please be updated and informed?

    EA_cuervo​ @ EA_Groguet

    Can we please have an update on this game breaking bug? It completely destroys any two player career. We have had zero feedback on this and it hasn't even been added to the list of bugs to be investigated? Why?

    You simply can not have a two player career mode when the starting positions are mixed up on SPRINT WEEKENDS. I'm so incredibly frustrated that this has not been resolved? 

    Bugs like this that can seriously impact and determine the outcome of two player career championships have to be a priority fix. Is it even being investigated? Please report back to us it's affecting many players and has been reported several times not only on here but all over the internet.

    Please update us.

    Hey IanM282​ , I completely understand how frustrating this must be for you and others who are experiencing it. At this moment, I don't have any further updates to share. However, I can assure you that it has been reported to the team, and they're aware of the issue. Once I have further information to share, I will let you know.
