So I have seen some gameplay footage from some bigger YouTube creators of F1 22 and noticed that number 9 is not selectable even tough there isn't anyone in the current grid who runs 9. So my question is: Will 9 be selectable in a later version (or in the full version)? Thank you for the answers

Although this is true, we were able to use Alonso's 14 in 2019 and 2020 and we can use Hulkenberg's 27 in both 20 and 21 so I'm not sure that it'll stay unusable. It's possible that because Mazepin would have probably been present in the game in the very early builds that they just havent enabled the number 9 yet or forgotten about it after they replaced him with Magnussen.
It's a shame.I know this is the real rule but it's not like Mazepin is going to be re-added to this game even if he does come back in to F1 (unlikely).
BTW also 27 (my typical number) cannot be used in F1 22, bit weird, any reasons? Perhaps one of the 3rd drivers? 🤔
In F1 2020 and F1 2021 it was available...

Isnt the hulk 27 ?
Very good point, I'd missed that. #27 you can kind of understand as Hulk has raced this year, but #7 and #9 are surely the same, both have not been used since 2021 but we can use #7 and not #9, seem inconsistent.

Yes true, he raced the first two, damn it! 😞
What about number 12?
