There appears to be an issue with the F1 2026 Multiplayer Cars when using Realistic Performance in an online multiplayer lobby.
When I create an online multiplayer lobby using the F1 25 Multiplayer Cars and set car performance to Realistic, the technical level of each player's multiplayer car is displayed above the driver's name.
This allows the lobby host to check the technical level of every participant before starting the session.
However, when I create the same type of multiplayer lobby using the F1 2026 Multiplayer Cars from the 2026 Season Pack and set car performance to Realistic, the technical level is no longer displayed above the players.
As a result, there is currently no way for the lobby host to verify the technical level of each player's F1 2026 Multiplayer Car.
This is particularly problematic for organised leagues and multiplayer championships where realistic car performance is used and technical levels need to be monitored to ensure that all drivers comply with the championship rules.
Steps to reproduce:
1 - Create an online multiplayer lobby.
2 - Select F1 25 Multiplayer Cars.
3 - Set Car Performance to Realistic.
4 - Join the lobby with multiple players.
5 - The technical level of each player's car is displayed above the driver.
6 - Create another online multiplayer lobby.
7 - Select F1 2026 Multiplayer Cars.
8 - Set Car Performance to Realistic.
9 - Join the lobby with multiple players.
10 - The technical level of the players' cars is not displayed.
Expected result:
The technical level of every F1 2026 Multiplayer Car should be displayed above each player, in the same way it is displayed when using F1 25 Multiplayer Cars with Realistic Performance.
Actual result:
When using F1 2026 Multiplayer Cars with Realistic Performance, the technical level is not displayed anywhere in the lobby, making it impossible for the host to check the technical level of the participants.
