Where to report a grievance for F1 2023?

I can't find where to report grieving on the support page so ill post it here and hopefully get some help. I was playing a race about an hour ago and got taken out by a player called [Edited]. If there is somewhere I can officially report him it would help. I also have a clip of the incident saved where you can see him try and take me out 2 times before seceding the third.

CM edit: attachments removed - Don't "name and shame." If you see a suspected cheater, please report them by using the appropriate tools. We can't take any action against such accounts on Answers HQ, and such posts can lead to harassment.

@n3osnak3 This is just a copy and paste from what a saw a community manager post several threads down.
If you suspect a player may be playing unfairly you can use the steps detailed at the following link to report this.

https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/faq/report-players-for-cheating-abuse-and-harassment/
That being said, the feedback from people who have followed this process is that not much seems to get done about griefers so I wouldn't expect much.

@n3osnak3 Yesterday (by total accident) I found out you can report players via the race director. After being taken out by someone just because I was faster than them, I was looking at the other race incidents they'd been involved in. Clicked on their name and there it was, report player (so I did). Hopefully they get a ban for a couple of days. And the more people that report instead of rage-quitting, It may make players race a bit cleaner.

But again, how affective it is I have no Idea.

That doesn't work either. They say they review them and then close the report case. You can see all of these reports on the EA site.

I hope they do something about them. This is Simracing after all, in real life they would have had there licence taken from them.

@n3osnak3 The problem is EA can’t ban someone just because they received a report for someone behaving poorly in 1 race. And the odds of getting several hundred people to file a grief report against them is pretty slim. So that’s why you rarely see action taken.
