  • Greetings from Summer 2021. I got this game when it was on sale a few months ago and this bug has not been resolved at all.

    I have been testing around with several cars and I can tell you it happens to every car by a certain chance, but there are some that are more impacted than others. Cars with naturally high downforce and steering sensitivity have this issue considerably more often. The worst so far in my testing were the Lamborghini Huracán and the McLaren P1. The front wheels lock up almost every time when I stop hitting gas and try to steer in high engine speeds around switch points, especially in sharp turns or sudden course corrections due to traffic or police cars. Cars that have this bug regularly are pretty much unplayable. I have lost races, volatile parts and also pursuits to this bug. But seemingly, the game is irrelevant for the devs by now, so they won't put any effort into fixing it...
