Unreal engine crash every time i boot up the game right when the f1 intro should start

[[SET]Ofenkartoffel]

SO...
Every. single. time. i start the game, as soon as the f1 intro should normally start playing, the game crashes instantly, with an unreal engine error crash reading:
Unhandled exception: Exception_error_reading access violation bla bla blah
and under it in the report window it says
f1 manager24
f1 manager24
f1 manager24
f1 manager24
f1 manager24
f1 manager24
kernl32 or smth

ive tried every possible thing i can think of such as:
removing all mods
verfiying game files
reinstalling the game
clean installing
removing all files manually
updating drivers
adapt my gameusersettings..
change my directX settings
changed my amd settings

i vedone it all


ive already emailed frontier support about it but im still waiting for them to give me an option that i havent done yet.
no one on the discord is of any help, so this is kinda my last resort.
has anyone else had this issue? and maybe fixed it
its so frustrating, it happend after i installed the max graphics mod, but i mean i removed all of it and uninstalled it..

pc specs:
amd ryzen 7
radeon rx7900xt
32gigs ram
pls help

Update: i fixed it. Its a lot simpler than i thought, so anyone else having this issue, this might also fix it for you.
seemingly one of my savefiles was corrupt. i dont know how that made the entirety of the game crash, but after deleting all my saves, it worked.

Please, can you explain to me how you did it? I'm in the same situation, unable to play. Thanks.
