F1 2017 - Switched from McLaren to Ferrari and after the first practice, the game just keeps loading

Recommended Posts

I was HOPING for a chance to switch teams, but didn't expect it when it came up.  I'd already thought about switching to Ferrari to join Vettel, and maybe even take the #1 Driver spot from him at some point (gave up #1 with McLaren to make the switch).  Was worried I might lose my durability upgrades I'd earned, and sure enough... all gone.  But ok, I'm with Ferrari.

Was supposed to do an International race - one of those chose one of these two types.  Well, I never got there.  After choosing one, I ended up at a practice session for the next big race.  My crew chief is the same, and while I hadn't scheduled any upgrades, he's telling me they are putting some on my car - probably stuff Kimi ordered.  So fine, I go to first practice.  I ran the track familiarity because I bought the game less than a month ago and still barely know the courses I've raced.  I'm generally getting 30 out of 50 on familiarity after 3 laps.  Then I do the racing style, so they know how I drive on the track.  And when there is time, I finish with the qualifying warm up.  Sometimes doing all 3 in one day.  Well, I had the fastest lap on the track, and I go to advance to Practice 2.

The usual loading screen comes up, but it just keeps spinning.  That was like 20 minutes ago, and after 5+ I came out here to check the forums.  If others have this issue, I'm looking for the wrong thing or in the wrong place.  I'm gonna go check it once more before I hit post, but I think I hit a bug, a glitch, or something.  Yup was still spinning.  Hit the PS button, closed the app, and I'll go back in and see what that does to me.  Here's hoping choosing the new team hasn't totally hosed my season and save file.  :(
