[Solved] Very specific game crash but nowhere else?

Anybody else crashing when loading specifically into the 3rd round of the F1 world intro American quickfire race at Miami?

I'm not getting game crashes at all otherwise, even the other F1 world events like the TT challenge etc ect

Miami loads perfectly fine in TT, all other game modes work fine, it's just that one particular event, the game just shuts down like I did it manually

GPU drivers were updated so I can't figure out this issue and wanna make sure it isn't just me (3080ti), reverifying game files didnt work, (on steam)

This is a frustrating bug because not only does the game work perfectly in every other game mode and customization screen, this issue is stopping all unlockable progress in F1 world

bug
crashing
pc
progress issue
technical issues

    I already had engineering unlocked at this point because I completed the prerequisite races required in other f1 world events, and yeah I've tried to verify files, but will try and simply reinstall the game and follow up

    UPDATE: reinstalling game didnt work, other things ive tried is turning off dlss, changing to windowed mode, turning off 3d sound, testing with my hmd disabled - im sorta at a loss now

    will also try and delete local save files, any idea where that's located?

    Ah Hah! Found the issue

    I run steam as a administrator, which isn't the default, I turned that off and restarted steam normally and the crash is gone

    I suspect it may have been conflicting with the EAC files
