How long till the next patch, and will it actually fix anything?

[Bicarda 465]

So after the last hugely disappointing patch, a lot of people giving up on the game altogether, and since multiplayer is still a glitch minefield with all the things that can go wrong or mess it all up,
(I mean half the stuff we're used to by now but it just goes to show how bad it all is.) I'm wondering:

(1) Will we be seeing an actual patch for this game? (2) In what timeframe will that be? 
With actual, I mean a patch that will fix those issues with multiplayer and has people think after installing it "wow, the game is seriously less broken than it was before now!"

@BarryBL

(3)  will the next patch, or an upcoming patch, actually contain the long list of fixes that are needed to make this game playable online? 

Or (4) Are you (guys) well happy with keeping us on a leash with patches that fix NOTHING. and slowly cruise to the next time we have to pay 70 euro's for a broken (issues even in very controlled e-sport environment) game? 

Thank you very much. 
(I've numbered the questions to make it easier to see if they've all been answered)

the next patch will just include the smooth operation on the PS5 / Xbox Series X/S - I would guess ;)

Considering some problems go back to 2018 edition or before cause codemasters just keep rehashing previous game code means we be lucky to ever see a lot of bugs fixed, codemasters always looking to next version of game over fixing current one. Basically profit before pleasing customers sadly.

They just sold up to Take 2. No way are they gonna care now it's someone elses problem. 

Maybe would of been different had Covid not happened, but this game is so far behind where it should be.

The F1 calendar would be wrapping up very soon and we dont even have this seasons F2 cars. 

Considering next years game will only see the removal of Vietnam and the addition of Saudi Arabia (***) F1 21 should be a big patch for F1 20 not a new release.

Good points but with new consoles out I can see them concentrating on upping the graphics and maybe a few new features to my driver and that’s it as they focus on the new consoles.
