DSQ during VSC for not completing Drive Through Penalty

Product: F1 22
Platform:PS5
Summarize your bug I was given a drive through penalty (to serve within 3 laps) for going under the delta during a virtual safety car. 2 Lap later another virtual safety car was deployed. On that 3rd lap I wasn't sure whether I had to serve the penalty or not. I pitted just in case and had a normal pit stop. Once I left the pitlane I was disqualified.
Which area is the bug/glitch in? Either Driver career or single race
How often does the bug occur? Unsure
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Get a drive through penalty and then have a safety car/VSC deployed two laps later.
What happens when the bug occurs? DSQ
What do you expect to see? No DSQ

    @LeemiddsI also have this problem, I boxed 3 laps in a row under vsc because it was a long one and each time I went in the box and never served the penalty. I’m in Xbox series X and have the same issue.

    While the bug posted by the OP is valid (and I would imagine that laps under a VSC or full SC should not count towards the laps remaining to serve a DT penalty), in the official F1 rules, you're not allowed to serve a DT penalty under safety car conditions. So you have to wait until normal racing conditions to serve it.
