EU racing servers spawning with unusual lag and/or ping

Hello, there've been a problem for several races for me. Some instances of zones are spawning with super high ping >300ms while my usual ping is 70-80ms. Sometimes it's just a laggy server when lag happens from time to time and latency jumping between 80-150ms. Both times map layout says it's Frankfurt server, same as choosen gateway, but it feels like I'm being connected to US.

It doesn't happen in Tempest though, so I can't provide tracerouts or ips for these servers because you know I'm racing in races.
Playing with 70-80ms ping, which is causing long loading between zones,
resulting in 2-4 minutes disadvantage in 1 hour races.
(I was wrong, it wasn't a ping issue but something else on GGG side)
I got one super laggy zone instance in current race again. Looks like some overloading is happening or idk, I don't know how it's working. Remade zone and lag is gone.

got 5 of laggy zones in last race, problem is still here. Also it appears that it's not limited to races, got one map with lag spikes, re-entered and lag spikes are gone. Pls GGG, fix.

I died two times yesterday in races because of the lag spikes in Races. When you play aggresively and you lost two or three seconds in front of a crow, you are dead exile.

I don't think it is a race problem, i got weird lag spikes all day in normal league play.
(60ms ping - 300ms or even 1000ms)
Same for me. Alot of lagspikes from 83 too 450 and higher. Constant. First i thought its me. i turned off my hole wifi, just cable. nothing happens. So i asked at global chat. It turned out alot of players have the same problems with frankfurt, amsterdam and London sevrer.

in the same boat here.

playing during the morning from 8am till 2pm i usually have a latency between 40-50ms.

in the last couple of days from that time onward, latency is raising to a baseline of around 86ms , with lagspikes starting at around 5pm CET growing in numbers until i get frequently disconnected from the game.
it's not exclusive to any league, nor any european gateway, same picture just different base ping depending on the selected EU gateway.
