Game: F1 25 (EA app, PC) – latest update (2026 Season Pack)
Wheel: Logitech G920 + stock pedals, latest G HUB and firmware
PC: Windows 11 Pro (build 26200), Ryzen 5 5600, MSI A520M-A PRO, 32 GB RAM
Report Code: MSZR-CHJK-CPBD-HXMG
Issue: mid-race, wheel and pedal inputs freeze and the game stays stuck on the last input (wheel turned, throttle or brake held). FFB sometimes drops too. Happens a few minutes into a session.
With F1 25 running, Windows joy.cpl shows "The game controller is not connected properly". Closing the game restores it instantly. G HUB keeps detecting the wheel normally. The wheel works fine on another PC and the issue only happens in F1 25.
Already tried: reinstalling G HUB and drivers, different rear USB ports (no hub), disabling USB power saving, deleting hardware_settings files, recalibrating and remapping, disabling EA app overlay, closing Steam. Issue persists.
