Team Radio Issues (PS5)

I am running into loads of bugs with the team radio on PS5. I don’t know if these are mode specific, as I’ve only really played Driver Career, but I suspect they are present throughout the game.

Some of the issues include:

  • The names of drivers being given incorrect. The engineer constantly refers to Norris as Piastri, ie “Piastri the car ahead” when it’s Norris. And referring to Piastri as “the McLaren driver”. 
  • Ocon and Bearman are referred to as “The Aston Martin driver” which is neither their name or the correct team.
  • Telling me my team mate is in the pits when they aren’t.
  • Incorrect reports on vehicle damage. Such as my DRS stopped working but it told me there was a problem with the engine.
  • Incorrect timings. For example telling me the car ahead is 3 seconds away when it’s closer to 1 second.
  • The lap after a pit stop I get a message that my lap times are too erratic and to try have more consistent laps. Obviously there’s going to be a big difference after a pit stop.
  • Radio silence. This has only happened a few times but there are times where I have no Race Engineer at all and only saving and reloading mid race fixes this.

There are several other bugs as well but these have been the most common that I’ve come across.

    Hey there,

    Thank you for sharing all the inputs you have about Team Radio Issues. If you find more examples, let me know and I will share them with the team.

    I can confirm this. The are many occasions when I try to talk with the engineer, and all Marc says is "Sorry, we don't have the right information", or he doesn't respond at all.

    The radio overall seems like a mess this year. For example, if a car is 4.500 secs ahead of me, sometimes Marc just says ".500" but doesn't say "4".

    The DRS malfunction bug happened to me as well. Marc said it is an engine issue, but the HUD was showing a faulty DRS. A few seconds later Marc told me that it is indeed a faulty DRS.

    EA_Groguet​ Would you kindly forward this to the devs and tell them to have a look at the radio messages?
