Sprint Race events not displaying correctly

After choosing Authentic format enabling sprint races at Imola, Austria and Brazil, they are not always appearing correctly in the menus. For example, when I'm finished with the Australian GP event a...

@KPV4ever yeah, that's the same as me. And you say the workaround is to restart the game before you do qualifying? Maybe that's why it didn't have it at Imola, It might have been my last race that day and never noticed the glitch when I played the next day. Hopefully they can get it fixed.

@DRudd13 Not sure actually if that's even enough, to restart the game before qualifying. I have restarted it before even practice sessions.

@KPV4ever Ah ATM I'm only doing Grand Prix mode with no practice, So qualifying is my first session. I'll try to restart the game next time round before I start the weekend and see what happens.

Hey @KPV4ever,

thanks for the report so far. As I understood, you always see the opposite weekend structure in the main menu. Have you once tried to go to the weekend and see if it actually has a sprint race included, although it shouldn't?

Might be a displaying issue, but just want to make sure if it actually includes / excludes the sprint race properly.

  @EA_rephiiIf you look at the attachments from DRudd13, their attachment with 588 kb actually answers your question already. There is a screenshot from a French sprint race. The key question is though if DRudd13 chose authentic mode before starting the season. I did, and authentic mode enables sprint races in Imola, Austria and Brazil, if they are chosen to the race calendar (in cases of customised calendars, I use the official full calendar). I haven't tried if there actually would have been a sprint race for me in France as the menu showed. Before starting the French gp, I had restarted the game which wiped out the French sprint.
  
  So I'm quite sure there is a bug. The screenshots should prove it 🙂

    @KPV4ever Yes, I picked authentic and the official calendar. Just in Grand Prix mode with no practice.

  The problem to me seems to be that the weekend after an authentic sprint weekend also comes up as a sprint race. And I have clicked advance on France after Austria, What happened was, I was doing 25% race on Grand Prix mode. So A full race would be 13 laps at France. And when I went to the race strategy, it showed a 13 lap race with no pit stops. So I started the race, then retired after the first corner. Went to the result screen to see full points had been giving out but no pit stops made. Here are some better quality pictures.
