Stuck in loading screen - 2 player career

Product: F1 22
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
Summarize your bug In 2 player career, my screen is black, and says "waiting for players". While I'm on that screen my brother is on the screen where you sit at a desk with a computer, in the top left corner of his screen it says that I'm busy. We can't continue because I can't click on anything, and he is waiting for me.
Which area is the bug/glitch in? Driver Career
How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? It happened after he disconnected while we were loading into the Imola race. I'm guessing that his console believes we didn't get into the race, while mine believes we did, and now we're just stuck.
What happens when the bug occurs? One screen goes into a loading screen, while the other is on another screen waiting for the player on the loading screen.
What do you expect to see? We would expect that we're both on the same screen, so either we're both loading into the race, so we can start the race or we're both sitting at the desk with the computer, so we can go into the race.

My brother and I can't continue with our F1 22 co-op career because my game won't load. It is stuck on a black screen and says "waiting for players". While I'm on that screen he is on the screen where you sit at a desk with a computer, in the top left corner of his screen it says that I'm busy. It happened after he disconnected while we were loading into the Imola race.

We have restarted the game, restarted our consoles, and I've removed him from the career and added him again, but nothing seems to work.

I'm on a ps4 & he is on a ps5.

    I can't seem to find a way to download the ps4 version on the PS5, so I don't think it's possible for us to both be on the ps4 version, however, we just tried switching consoles, so that I'm on the PS5 and he is on the ps4 and the result is the same. I'm still stuck on a black screen where it says "waiting for players", and he is on the screen where he sits by his computer.

    After the first save stopped working me and my brother started a new save, now, 11 races in, we are having the same issue with the new save, only this time I disconnected from the game and now my brother is stuck in the black loading screen saying "waiting for players", and I'm in another loading screen. He is still on the PS5 and I'm on the ps4.

    The problem is not only PS4/ps5 related. On PC in multiplayer games it's happening all the time. A player gets stuck in a loading screen and whole lobby has to wait until the bugged player leaves.

    We have the same issue, both on PC.

    Has been working fine up till now with 4 races of the calendar to go. One player loads into the pre-session laptop and the other has a blank screen until the first one leaves. Then they go straight into the session. Seems like the saves are somehow de-synced on and trying to go to different points. Pretty frustrating as every year we get pretty much the exact same bug where we can't load in and the career is lost with no way of recovery. Tried everything to get around it but in the end, always get stuck in a loading screen one way or another.
