F1 2017 - Frame drops / Small lag spikes while racing AI or online (PC)

Recommended Posts

I have lately been getting small lag spikes while racing AI or online. I do a lot of racing against a friend online with 18 AI cars, but lately I have been getting frame drops in game, where the game freezes for a few tenths often. The first 2 laps of a race go pretty well with having pretty much no issues and having a stable framerate at 60 FPS. However, soon after I start getting these frame drops, which affect my gameplay. I have had this issue about a month ago, but I managed to mostly solve it by running CCleaner and 'cleaning' my PC. About one to two weeks ago, this problem re-occured and this time doing a CCleaner scan doesn't help a lot. I can sometimes feel that the FFB on my wheel gets affected by a lag spike. The strange thing is that my friend, who lives near me has also been getting small lag spikes lately. He told me that through discord. We both don't have any issues when playing other current gen games like Project CARS 2.

So my question is if there is anything I can do to reduce the frame drops in-game, perhaps by changing in-game settings or PC settings. However changing the in-game graphics settings has not been working for me so far.

PC specs: 

- Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4430 CPU @ 3.00 GHz  3.00 GHz
- Installed memory (RAM): 12,0 GB
- System: x64 processor
- Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti
