A2/Steam Updates Game while I am racing. How to STOP this?`

A2, via Steam, keeps updating the game while I am racing and it really affects game-play!
I don't see anything is A2 to address this issue.
In STEAM, I've gone into SETTINGS and changed the settings for Downloading to ONLY download between
9am - 2 PM - and NO other times - NO Background downloading so it doesn't interfere with my late-night racing.
BUT it continues to UPDATE during the game and it's getting SO Frustrating!!!!
Anyone know how to prevent this - in A2 or Steam?

Never mind.... the issue was a loose connection in the Fanatec Hardware. It's now fixed and running smoothly.
Sorry for being a dork.
