F1 Bug 25

DRS, RPM & Acceleration drop after a few laps (PS5 + G29)

Text:

I’m playing F1 25 on PS5 with a Logitech G29 wheel.

After around 3–5 laps, the car starts losing performance in strange ways:

  • DRS stops working, even when it’s available
  • Engine won’t rev properly in 6th or 7th gear – top speed drops noticeably
  • Car suddenly feels slow on straights, despite full throttle
  • DRS flap sometimes closes on its own and won’t open again
  • Downshifting helps briefly, but the issue comes back
  • It doesn’t always happen in the same places – affected corners or sectors keep changing

 

What I’ve tried:

  • Full PS5 reboot and clean wheel reconnection
  • Tested different control profiles and assists
  • G29 works fine in other games
  • F1 23 had no problems – F1 24 already showed similar issues, but F1 25 is worse

 

This makes Time Trial, Career Mode, and League Racing almost unplayable.

I really hope Patch 1.04 fixes this, but if not, please escalate this to the dev team

    Same problem but it won’t go away. Game is unplayable.

    I'm having the issue that the game starts to fail during over an hours play and fails to save after completing a career race. I know it's about to happen because I lose the DRS and Overtake button on my wheel and then experience mid corner screen freezing. The podium and highlights are stuttery and I don't even make the results screen where auto save happens. Just her stuck on the please wait screen. I can't even reach a screen to obtain an error code. If this isn't fixed this game will need to be binned by me and I will expect a full refund. I can't believe this is not being acknowledged by EA as this is catastrophic.
