Time Trials: Can't select a ghost of my personal best times. No ghost is created

[Baked Ziti]

I'm having an issue with Time Trials where none of my personal best times save a ghost file. When I select Add Ghost, I can see my best time at the top, but there is no ghost symbol, so when I try to select it, no ghost car is added to my game.

The only ghost cars I can add are the best in world times which have a ghost symbol

So, is there a method/process I should be using to create/enable ghosts of my best laps? Does the game do it automatically? Do I need to meet a certain criteria (top 100?) for a ghost of my lap to be created?

When I've tried it it seems to just be random. Sometimes it saved my ghost, sometimes it didn't. Having one of your laps disqualified didn't seem to make a difference one way or the other from my testing, I did try checking that. I asked somewhere if anybody knew what caused it but I didn't get an answer.

Looking at the list of other people's times it appeared to be just as random. Some slow times had ghosts, some fast ones didn't.

Edit: the last time I looked at it was a couple months ago, something may have changed since then.

This problem looks like it has to do with the sync to cloud setting for the game, especially if you are doing a lot of TT. I have no idea why this happens, but what fixed this for me aand a couple other people was to close the game, switch the cloud sync setting, restart the game, close it again so that it tries to sync, then start again and it should magically work from now on.

Just a quick reply after a few more days of playing time trails. I discovered that my "ghost save issue" was only occurring on Nurburgring Nordschleife and the Azure Coast, two tracks that I put a lot of time into, and the first two I attempted with Time Trials. After some searching, I read that the game was having issues saving ghost images of long tracks such as the two I started off with.

Anyway, I tried a handful of time trials on smaller tracks (Spa, Road America, Laguna Seca) and found the game was successfully saving my personal best with a ghost car for each track at each vehicle class. Seems this issue remains for long circuits

I have the same issue, no one of my Time trials have ghost created
