It came to my attention that some of the driver names were corrupt, this was due to an export/import process that corrupted the names during transferring them from a test server to the live site. I have re-imported the names using a different technique to avoid corruption.
Additionally, I've run a bulk operation to rename all of the affected drivers and young drivers, repairing any corrupt names. The core issue should be addressed now, there won't be any corrupt names in-game. If you see any please report them.
Update: For a short time during the operation some driver surnames had changed, but these have now been corrected also.

If I could remember any other gibberish characters I saw in driver names I'd search those as well.

My Driver: Daniel Johnson changed his name to Daniel Laakso, over night.
Please turn back, if he is not persecuted by justice. ;)

Thanks for those, they weren't repairable by the bulk method either so I had to do those ones manually.
If you find any more don't hesitate to let me know.

Same link, different drivers:

[*]Rafa? Smętowski
[*]Micha? Za?uski
[*]Pawe? Karwi?ski
[*]Hawel Dvo?ák
[*]Anton N?mec
[/list]
The ones that were there previously are no longer on that page.
Are these drivers the ones generated by the Young Driver Academy?

Yeah, they are. There's clearly another layer to this but I'm pretty sure I know what it is.
Update: Found a definitive cause and corrected it.

Haha - most trainee drivers are a big question mark anyway :D
