Ok, I found a "fix". It makes no sense, but it works for me 100%.
It's sooooooooo simple: you have to open Discord an get in a voice channel BEFORE you open F1 22 (and keep it this way).
So steps are:
1. Open Discord.
2. Join a voice channel (it doen't matter if you are muted or alone, just get in).
3. Open F1 22.
And magically ffb is back. I know it sounds brainless, but it worked for me.
However no rpm lights, but at least I have ffb and I can play.
I tried again today, I had Discord open but I didn't join a voice channel before opening the game, and no ffb. Then I closed the game, I joined a voice channel and opened F1 22 again and ffb is back again lol.
Hope this to work for you all guys. Please let me know!

So you play in a window or Borderless fullscreen? Yep. I used to call this the 'lost focus' bug, it's to do with the DWM / Overlays.
All the overlays I use work in Fullscreen exclusive - DX12 has a feature called Full-screen optimisation. Never been able to get a straight answer out of CM as to whether it's implemented correctly but
Demystifying Fullscreen Optimizations - DirectX Developer Blog (microsoft.com)
I run in fullscreen and the overlays work no issues, I tend to investigate those when they break. And yes, Steam and Discord have often had issues. Only other one I really use is Afterburner, even that hasn't been immune.
