Event and sponsor locked after update
Patch 2.0 introduced more progression, sponsor and interface bugs. Sponsor AVAX has become unselectable (red padlock) even though I have purchased all mechanic upgrades and it was unlocked before pat...

So it turns out that race became available after unlocking Stage 3 of car upgrades. I have the same situation with event "Fully Upgraded Lightweights". Before patch 2.0 it was working correctly just like race requirement said - Stage 2 was all you needed. This is ridiculous, no way I'm grinding milage for each car just to unlock an event, it was already too much to grind out stage 2. Please fix this.
@stabbingy_stabThat's true, what you're talking about. I'm also angry about it, because I'm near the end of the game (I'm on the last stage before Gauntlet), where you need to finish all races including these for upgraded cars and everything before was fine, that you need to gain stage 2, which includes sometimes too much grind to unlock upgraded race (I finished all races, but sometimes you need to drive another 40 kilometers to unlock upgraded race, which can be boring after 2-3 times).
If you don't want to repeat the same cup or the same races many times, you can make your own race on Indianapolis oval, which is the shortest & fastest track in the game, choose the class you need to gain mileage and how many laps you need to drive. It helped me a lot during my gameplay and also pick your music playlist, because the soundtrack is kinda repetitive and annoying.
Thanks for a information about it, it helped me a lot with my game, because it calmed me that it's not my fault, but game's fault 🙂 Also it showed me that last Wednesday's update made game worse than before the update.
It gets even worse, this bug has just gone from a nuisance to game breaking. You actually can't progress to the final Gauntlet of the Career mode without completing Avax sponsor goals! You can't unlock Renault R26 in your garage without completing Avax race, therefore you can't upgrade R26, therefore you can't finish last race of Open Wheel Racing in Pro category, therefore you can't unlock The Gauntlet. This is a major problem Codemasters, please fix these progression breaking bugs. The way it is now, we can't finish a career. Please give us some feedback on this.
I agree with you, that this is a problem when the game doesn't allow you to finish it by normal way. What's interesting I finished it on Saturday, and the Avax race for me normally unlocked without any problems, but I need to make tricks to finish it like making own races with ramps and repeating drift races many times.
A few topics later, someone wrote about problems with unlocking two trophies (I played so much GT1 and Passione Rossa) on PS5 after latest update and unfortunately that's true, because I gained access to Tier 3 upgrade in each launch car in GT1 class and the "I played so much GT1" trophy should pop, but it won't pop.
Here's the link to topic about bugged trophies on PS5: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Grid-Legends-bugged-trophies-on-PS5/m-p/11502747#M421
I would like to make an platinum trophy, because I gained near all trophies (47 of 50) and these two bugged and Content Tracker Redux are only missing to unlock a platinum trophy.
