That is a good & fair point @SteveJackson, but I wouldn't say it makes it null and void.
If you're a clean racer, over a 25% race it may detect you caused a collision once or twice even if it wasn't your fault if you are unlucky. Three times if you're really unlucky. But 4+ and you have got to start looking into that racer, as being a dirty driver.
If it can be wrong once, it can be wrong every single time.
Plus, these need to be platform infringements to really stop players playing. Stuff like VAC bans are because they're circumventing fair playing fields, not by the tactics they employ, that's a whole different ball game. Because a poor player looks just like a bad one. It's a PEGI 3 game. And it's got bigger issues. 😇
Sometimes a deterrent can be more affective than a ban.
In-game sanctions that encourage players to adhere to fair play standards. The key is finding a balance that discourages negative behaviour without overly punishing or driving away players. It could foster a positive community culture where fair play is valued and rewarded, which can serve as a natural deterrent to negative behaviour.
I would like to be on a panel that sorts these blocked/ reported users out, watch the footage and give out penalties as and when, I wouldn't call it F1 racing more like banger racing !!!
Maybe EA/Codemasters could look at a system like overwatch in CSGO, I'm sure there are enough people (myself included) who'd love to watch through some races to pick out the annoying people that ruin races.
Put those people in lobbies with each other or something like.
