The R5 default is RAW and has another setting option for Compressed Raw.

Normal Canon RAW files uses lossless compresssion. The C-RAW files use a form of lossy compression.

Files sizes are bigger between the two cameras for a reason. The R3 doesn't do 8K. It does do 6K and 4K oversampled from 5.6K. Saying jpegs are good for sports is a joke too. Sports photographers gripe that cameras, in RAW, don't shoot enough FPS and now you're gonna tell me they'll settle for those jpegs?

Again, you've clearly never shot sports before if you think JPGs are not used in sports.
