F1 25 is here, presenting players with one of the most ambitious and advanced entries in the popular racing series to date!
While Codemasters and EA SPORTS' latest title appears to have gotten off to a strong start following its worldwide launch, it hasn't been immune to bugs, glitches, and other stability-related issues.
This is often the case for any newly released game, especially early post-launch. Fortunately, EA has confirmed that the F1 25 team is actively looking at and investigating all of the known issues so far.
All Known F1 25 Issues and Incoming Patches
Bugs, glitches, and other performance-related issues are to be expected with a newly released game, and F1 25 is no exception.
Although players seem to be enjoying many of the game's new features and realistic graphics, a number of community-raised problems are holding F1 25 back from reaching its full potential.
The good news is that developers are looking into many of the issues and subsequently working on a fix for each one. If you have encountered an annoying bug in F1 25 and are wondering whether or not it's being investigated, don't stress, we've listed all of the known issues and incoming patches below!
Under Investigation
Career
- Driver Icons cannot be disabled from being recruited (Two-Player Career)
Graphics
- Start lights missing when in cockpit camera
- Incorrect specular highlight in drivers eyes (PC Only)
- Light under wheels in Photo Mode when Path Tracing is enabled
Misc.
- Drivers being held in the pits unnecessarily in some circumstances
Workaround: To avoid extended waits in the pits, please disable 'Pit Release Assist' for the time being.
- Some Iconic Edition players yet to receive their F1 TV Pro Codes (US Only)
Note from Dev: Whilst most eligible players have received their codes, we are looking to generate a number of additional F1 TV Pro codes for those who pre-ordered the Iconic Edition in the US. We will look to share an update soon. This code will also be displayed on your EA Account under Profile > Payment and Wallet > Offers and Promotions.
Peripherals
- Logitech G923 causes game to stutter (Xbox Only)
Stability

Workaround: When using triple screens, please disable DLSS for the time being. We are being supported by NVIDIA to resolve this problem.
