It looks like you are playing this on a PS4, standard or pro? I've been visiting the Codemasters forums and this game is a bug ridden mess, graphics problems, gameplay problems etc etc. There are pages and pages of bugs and CM are up to patch 1.06 attempting to fix this mess.
I have not purchased F12017 due to the state it is in. It reviewed really really well, but unfortunately the day 1 patch seems to have put this game into a sad condition.
I'm wondering if you are even playing the same game?? Have you not suffered the numerous bugs and graphical glitches that so many are reporting?
I don't doubt your sincerity, but reading what you have written and reading the official forums it's like two different games.
