Possible memory leak

My PC SPECS:

RTX 4060TI (8GB of VRAM)

RYZEN 5 5600

ASUS TUF GAMING B550M PLUS WIFI II

32GB DDR4 3600MHZ RAM

2TB SSD

1080p165hz monitor running at 1080p 120hz

 

GAME VIDEO SETTINGS- Ultra Low preset, with 16x anisotropic filtering, with TAA and FidelityFX Sharpening. No DLSS or Frame Generation

Explanation: I say it's a possible memory leak, but in reality I have no clue why this happens. My issue is, sometimes, when I finish a race and the podium sequence starts, my game drops to 1FPS. I have tried leaving it like that for a minute, to see if it would eventually go back to normal. But no. So I pressed ALT+F4, and closed the game. After a solid 30 seconds of the game closing, I was back in my desktop. The mouse was moving like normal, but the rest of the PC was stuck on 1 FPS. I'd press something, and it would only happen a second after I press it. Everything was lagging. After pressing shutdown, even the spinning wheel that says "Shutting down" was stuck on 1 FPS. This behaviour only happens in F1 25. I have played EA FC for hours straight, I've played LMU, I've played GTA 5, etc. this behaviour only happens in the F1 25 game, and it started specifically after the 2026 season pack update. This has happened more than once. Actually, it happens multiple times in a day, it's random. It doesn't happen every race, but it happens every day.
