Game keeps crashing - corrupted Game files

Hey, I started playing F1 25 on launch-day via Steam. But the game just keeps crashing.First it was a short blackscreen and back to desktop, like 10 times, until the game finally starts.Then I was able to play Braking Point with only one crash in one go. Nevertheless from the moment on I started playing the career mode the crashes came back. First the blackscreen one from the beginning, then in the middle of a race and so on.After trying like every suggestion from exciting tutorials regarding this topic, from reinstalling the newest driver (I have a RTX 4080), to downgrading again, to run the game as administrator, to bypass the game and anticheat through my firewall. Also I tried like 10-20 times the intergrety data thing in steam and after every crash there are 3 corrupted files (the Anticheat and preloader). Tried reinstalling and repairing the anticheat. Changed my graphics settings. And so on.

Now, after idk what I have changed at all, the game starts (blackscreen crash every 4th time or so), then I can play around 10-15 minutes after the game just freezes and just closes with no error at all. Happened in the menu, during Quali, in the middle of the race. It just freezes, sound goes on for antoher 5-10 secs and then the game just exits.

Interesting is, that it seems that I cant do 2 outings in sprint qualis, every time the game crashes in the middle of the second outing without exception.

At this point I spent more time trying to fix the issue than really playing the game. From what I’ve seen this is a known issue from F1 24 but still there is no fix to find

    sadly enough Im trying to fix the issue for almost 48 hours now. In the beginning during breaking point it went smoothly for 3 hours straight but since then I only got it to work for like max. 30 minutes. Now its arround 10-15 minutes when the game even starts.
    Updated my BIOS, my graphic driver, did the game file check like 100 times, completely reinstalled the game and so on and nothing really helps or is a permanent solution. I just dont know what to do, to actually fix this issue, cause there has to be something.

    Update: I know even updated my BIOS (installed version was about 2 years old) and also didnt work. Still 3 corrupted files and crash almost instantly or in main menu.

    Update: Just restarted the game like 5 times and restarted the career race in Miami 5 times. And I can't get past Lap 8. Everytime the game freezes and closes. I don't know where to even look for an error anymore, because its always the same one and nothing helps. I was really looking forward to playing but this is just ridiculous.

    Update: The three corrupted game files after checking game files on steam remain, nevertheless I was able to start the game when I put -dx12 in the start-options. But the game just froze and crashed again 12 laps into the race.

    Update: I upgraded back to the latest driver and the game kept crashing again on startup. Blackscreen and it closes. Also reinstalled the whole game (deleted all game related folders) and nothing has changed. Honestly I dont know what to do anymore.
