The defense played in F1 was ineffective; it lacked any sort of hard ramming during shots and blocking passes and inbounds which have caused the game to be dubbed "Aerial Assault".
This isn't fully related to the ethics questions going on in the thread, and was just an observation from a side station as human player, but I am pretty sure the lack of hard ramming was partially due to the Head Ref making sure the drivers understood the new ramming rules (the update to G27 on the 20th), and how they were going to call it.

I remember just in a practice match, 812's bot hit ours at mediocre speed (they were going just fast enough that when they hit us, they tipped a small, but our bot didn't really move much), and it was still called a ramming foul.

Pretty much just think you didn't see the heavy ramming in large part due to drivers definitely not wanting to get that foul.

(Just an observation)
