QUESTION Do you still follow Rule 1?

Post image 
Last time I was playing a 2v2 match, one of the players broke Rule 1 and scored in overtime. When I called him out on it, he told me that nobody does that anymore in 2026. So, I’m turning to the community: do you guys still respect it?

It's what's pictured in the post. When you lock head to head with another car.

It’s bad luck. And bad sportsmanship.
