Finished in 1st Place but lost side Bet (close race)

Question

Product: Need for Speed: UnboundPlatform:PCSummarize your bug Won race (first place) lost bet. It was a really close finish only just came around the other car at the end. (happened twice for me)How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? have really close race against someone you bet against. (all displayed digits of time matching)What happens when the bug occurs? you beat the car in the race standings but not the betting.What do you expect to see? If i win the race i expect to win the side bets (and not have it say i lost)‌close races are really hard to reproduce, attached is a screenshot of the race end. Issue could be clear from the screenshot.

Same issue, but won the race by 0.02 seconds vs. the side bet opponent. See attached screenshot.

Summarize your bug Won race (1st place) but lost side bet (2nd place racer).
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Close finish of the race, ~0.02 seconds (unsure of the actual threshold) difference between 1st and 2nd places with side bet racer in 2nd.
What happens when the bug occurs? Win the race by a close margin (~0.02 seconds) vs. side bet racer (finishes 2nd).
What do you expect to see? I expect to win both the race and side bet based on the final result times.

@a9c6b3b119064899I wonder if the game's logic resolves racing ties in the player's favor, but not side bets, as the side bets are a bet that you'll *beat* the other driver, not tie with them. Could be intended.
