PS5 – "Unable to Save" Error During Races in Driver Career Mode

I'm encountering a recurring issue in F1 25 on PS5, specifically in Driver Career Mode.

When I try to manually save during a race, I receive an error message that says:

"Unable to save. Retry or continue without saving."

Choosing “Retry” does not resolve the issue, and “Continue without saving” obviously skips the save entirely.

Additional context:

- Autosaves work fine outside of races
- The issue only happens during races in Driver Career
- I’ve already deleted and restarted the career, but the problem persists with the new save
- I’m running the latest version of the game
- I haven’t deleted saved data from storage yet, to avoid unnecessary loss

The issue does not appear in other game modes and seems isolated to this specific scenario.

Is this a known bug? Are there any suggested workarounds or planned fixes?

I’d be happy to provide more info or test additional steps if needed.

  • I have been having the same issue I first started to notice this on Friday 

  • I have now experienced the same issue in My Team Career Mode, specifically when using the 100% race distance setting. The error occurs during the race when attempting a manual save, just as in Driver Career.

    For additional context:

    - The problem seems does NOT occur in F1 World’s Grand Prix mode with 100% race length—manual saving works correctly there.
    - Autosave still works outside of race sessions.
    - The issue appears to be isolated to career modes (Driver and Team) and only occurs during races at full (100%) race distance. I have not tested manual saving during races at other (shorter) race distances yet.

    If more info or further testing is needed, I’m happy to help.

    I’ve been experiencing this issue as well on the PS5 PRO, I race with 100% race distance. For me it sometimes works then breaks or it doesn’t allow me to save at all. It occurs in all sessions (FP1 etc) in career mode. I’m seeing other people report this issue, all seem to be on the PS5. 

    Clearly something isn’t right with how F1 25 saves on PS5. 

  • I hear and feel this. Posted before and no resolve with patch. Useless. 100% races and cannot save mid race. It's time consuming and this non save issue makes it all worse.
