Change the code to this

from selenium import webdriver

chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
chrome_prefs = {"profile.managed_default_content_settings.images": 2}
chrome_options.add_experimental_option("prefs", chrome_prefs)
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=chrome_options)

or you can use the chrome extension 'Block Image' from extension downloader. This link will be helpful for you Disable images in Selenium Google ChromeDriver

Do you check with disabling JS as well – Talal Siddiqui Nov 10 '21 at 04:29
Yes i tried disabling everything – dlrPaud Nov 10 '21 at 06:25
Ok you should add this line after opening page `driver.execute_script("""return document.querySelector("head").remove();""")` It will remove the header of the page which contains all the JS and CSS – Talal Siddiqui Nov 10 '21 at 06:54
