Hey there,
Thank you very much for your reports. This issue should have been fixed with the last patch, but we are receiving some reports that, unfortunately, it still occurs.
I will escalate this to the team asap.

Thanks 😊
It seems like instead of only the F1 drivers and Icon are using fixed numbers, F2 drivers too are also occupying fixed numbers (thanks for Euphonic88 providing the clarification).
To clarify the issue, currently, F2 drivers are using their F2 numbers when they got hired into F1, which overlapped with quite a few existed numbers that are already being used by current F1 drivers.
Furthermore, for some reason, Icon drivers always override their F2 teammate's number, which made them both using the same number when they're on the same team.
Though, as mentioned, Icons does not override other Icons' number, and seems to be not conflicting with F1 drivers either (from what I've seen so far)
However, I haven't got to the point to see what would happen if those F2 drivers (that got their number overriden by Icon) moved to another team.
