Xbox One/Series controller glitch - loss of FFB power on right side.

Product: F1 22
Platform:Microsoft XBOX One
Summarize your bug This glitch is a little more complex than others, since it's a corelation between Xbox Controllers, their firmware and the f1 game itself, and it happens since the F1 2021. As long as the driver keeps playing and getting mileage through the game, the right side of the controller starts to lose power and force feedback, which transicts to the left side, giving force to the brakes and losing feeling on the throttle, compromising the force feedback in general. I have this problem in more than one controller on Xbox One and i have a friend on PC with the exact same thing, and there's nothing we can do in our side to fix it, since it's impossible to revert the Xbox controller's firmware. I have tested the force of vibration on the Xbox Acessories and other games and the feedback is normal, only on the F1 games this happens.
Which area is the bug/glitch in? TT
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play the F1 game through a couple of days in a Xbox One or Xbox Series controller with the latest of firmwares through a couple of hours for a few days, and then you will notice the change of feeling on the pad.
What happens when the bug occurs? The force feedback starts to switch from right to left side in terms of power, the right side of the controller becomes weaker and the left side stronger, until a point the difference will be massive and the driver struggles with force feedback in tracion and feeling with the curbs.
What do you expect to see? A type of fix which brings the force feedback back to normal conditions, where both sides vibrate equally strong and we don't need to up the force feedback force inside the game to make the feeling similar, despite weaker.

I've putted "Time Trial" of game mode which this problem happens but it's on all game modes, and it happens in both PC and Xbox platforms since F1 2021.
