So, I encountered a trio working in unison to block the course. Two were blocking choke points, one was actively waiting and following racers to spin them out, and block them so they can't proceed. I reported them for Unsportsmanlike conduct through Xbox live. This really annoys me, and yes, it was a public race.
But I hope we can all agree that people who join races JUST to make the people who want to race- experienced or not, fast car or slow car, experiences troublesome and downright annoying- the TRUE scumbags of the racing game mode. I don't know how I managed to dodge someone blocking the choke point where you drive on top of the Tube part as a bridge in Trench II.
I won't mention their gamertags or their Crew for some obvious reasons, who knows, they could have a loving wife and kids. Don't hate the person, hate the player.
I'm sure both PS4 and PC/RSC has some sort of way to report Unsportsmanlike conduct. I believe on XBL it damages their "reputation" rather than reporting them for cheating, which would offer them suspension or a ban.
I'm not too sure why I wrote this, I did place in second, a fair race for both me and the winner (I hope), but I felt bad seeing 6+ people get their race ruined through ultimate scumbaggery. I hope many, if not, all, will agree with me.

It's a public race man, nothing you can do about it. Even people doing it on Premium Race :

Going to that extreme with collaborative sabotage, does not register without a hint of respect and admiration. If you gonna be a dick, be a big swinging one! lol

I'm always confused when people are willing to wreck themselves to stop someone passing them particularly when its over a mid pack position. Spinning someone out or knocking them off the track I can see the point of but sacrificing yourself as well seems odd. I had a similar race a couple of days ago when someone decided to block the finish line, fortunately as I spun round I backed over the line. Fortunately even in public races its reasonably rare.

Have yet to have see a couple people doing it, but have seen cases of one car blocking the track. Also had a race the other day in the stunts update I was leading and a car was coming to pass and they tried to send me off the track (One of those parts where it's a mile drop) luckily they hit the middle of my car and ended up knocking themselves off

The funniest ones for me are when someone blatantly tries their hardest to take you out while you're overtaking, or going into a slow corner after a long straight, but they miss so horrifically that they end up losing 3 or 4 positions and rage-quit because of their own stupidity. Such a warm fuzzy feeling

Naming and shaming of dickheads in other crews is no problem at all. Only if it's a NoDo member, contact a commissioner.
Best bet to avoid these assholes is simply stay away from public lobbies. Afterall, that's one of the main reasons this crew was created ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
