F1 23 v1.05 Fixes Red Flags, Doesn’t Fix Broken Equal Performance

After posting the release notes the other day (with a date on the post of July 3, 2023), EA have today released the patch.

There are still a significant amount of issues, most notable among them summed up by “Tyre degradation differences between teams despite equal performance” in their known issues thread. What is that? Well, a bug that existed at least as far back as F1 22 means that when set to equal performance tire wear was simply not equal. This means there may have been a significant disadvantage to running certain teams in online competition.

Red flags have been fixed. You will now keep the correct position after the race ends.
