That is so not true. The spirit of motorsport across so so many forms is poking and prodding at the limits of the rules.
From "$500" 24 Hours of Lemons racers that intentionally start with negative laps to go over $500 to most banned F1 tech (99% of it was stuff that wasn't explicitly against the rules when created: https://www.digitaltrends.com/cars/10-craziest-technologies-...)
Once the tech is banned sometimes clever cheats show up to keep using it, but that's not what happened here.
Explain why NASCAR drivers are retaliating by completely crashing into each other, is that poking at the limits when it's so blatant?
F1 and NASCAR are not comparable. In F1 teams get applauded for cheating with tech, which is completely different, and arguably more boring, from NASCAR where excitement mostly comes from danger.
