What method did you use to get this? DevTools Audit panel directly, extension, or the cli?

I was able to run an audit for https://unaparolaalgiorno.it/ using cli and with devTools, but I am on a slightly newer Chrome Version, do you have steps to replicate?

Sometimes this can be a result of extensions in your browser itself, can you try to run this in incognito as well and see if the problem persists?
