Grid walk cutscene randomly skips
I recently bought the game on steam and whenever I first start the game and go into a race whether is be grand prix mode or career mode, the track intro cutscene plays fine, the grid order cutscene plays fine too, but the moment they go into the grid walk cutscene (the one where the commentators are talking and showing the cars before the formation lap) after the safety car is shown the cutscene automatically skips (every other cutscene though like the celebrations and podium and champagne cutscene play like normal, it's really just the grid walk cutscene that skips). And I've tried every fix like unplugging different peripherals from my laptop to changing controllers and tinkering with the settings, changing refresh rates, lowering graphics, limiting fps and turning on vsync, turning of steam and discord overlay, turning off steam input, and even changing the commentator voices to no avail. I also tried reinstalling the game and verifying files with nothing changing at all. I've tried everything at this point and idk what to do, and idk if this is just a glitch with my copy, or is something that a problem no one just mentions. Another thing I noticed was that when I choose the F2 mode whether it's the 24 season or 25, the cutscene never skips at all and the game works fine again. And if I start with F2 and go race in the F1 mode after, the grid walk cutscene doesn't skip too. And, after that first initial skip, if I start in the F1 mode, it never skips again until I close the game and open it again for my next playthrough, and another temporary fix I found when I start the game is to skip the first two cutscenes (track intro, grid order), and the grid walk will play normally until I close the game again, and there are times when I start the game and the skip doesn't happen at all. So I'd just like to know what's going on, is there a fix for this? And if it's a bug... PLS FIX IT EA Report Code: CMXR-TXBB-BDMD-SCDGF1XL Season 27 Starts 25th Jan 2026
Happy New year. F1XL is the UK's longest running F1 League having started way back on F1 2010 and we havent skipped a year since. We have since grown from strength to strength, starting on Xbox but expanding to multi-platform along the way and bringing together people from all over the world. Literally. We believe we are unique amongst the F1 League communities and offer something different. We are aimed specifically at a more casual audience. Don't let that fool you - we have some incredible racers driving with us, but we actively encourage people of all ages, abilities, walks of life and lifestyles to join and have fun. To encourage this more casual approach we only use the in game presets. NO custom set ups allowed. So what else? A unique "Team Principal" system. A Live broadcast draft night before the season starts where Team Principals get to draft their team across all divisions. A weekly broadcast chat show (when possible) with reviews and interviews of the weeks races. As close to full seasons as we can manage in timeframes. An outstanding and welcoming community with a robust rule-set to ensure fairness for all and great on-track racing. Season ending All Star Race, a 100% feature race with top drivers from all our divisions. A silly amount of stats that enables the near 800 drivers we have had over the years to see how they stack up against others along with all accolades accrued We race on Sundays at 9pm BST. 50% race distance with a single quali session. If you want a good look at our history, head over to https://www.f1xl.co.uk/home and check out our past seasons, stats, records and so on. You can apply for the coming season from there too. Most importantly though, head to our Discord and sign up there. https://discord.gg/zRrW4GUX We look forward to seeing you all on track in the New Year
EA App not recognizing F1 25 Steam license
I bought this game June 26, with high hopes of playing in preparation for the now released F1 movie Unfortunately, I kept running into this issue where the game doesn't recognizes my EA Account, and the EA App refuses to acknowledge my Steam license, despite the game being bought and installed legitimately through Steam. It keeps refusing access to online features, claiming it cannot connect to the EA Online servers. I have already done every step possible to troubleshoot, from re linking my EA and Steam account, reinstalling the EA App, verifying the Steam game files, running both apps as administrator, etcetera. It is also worth noticing I have contacted EA Support multiple times, and told this is a widespread issue affecting multiple F! 25 Steam players, not just me. Regardless, I was offered no fix, besides refunding the game and re-buying it via the EA App, which I think is an unacceptable solution because then why even bother offering EA games on Steam. Not wishing to be a nuisance, but I paid 74 USD for this game and DLC, and I can't access basic online features. IS there a way to re-sync the licenses manually? Or if there is an estimated time for a fix. Thanks in advance
Career mode character keeps being reset to default
I’m in a career mode, and having made my character, every time I race or enter a session he gets reset visually to a random Asian looking default character rather than my own. This happens every single time I log on or exit career mode and go back on, he’s been reset
