Yes and no, BR.
The problem is that unlike many other sports (let's pretend that F1 is a genuine sport), "play" cannot be stopped while the referee (race control) looks at all the data available to decide whether every move was "legal". In virtually every team sport, the team rushes to the referee or umpire to complain about x or y, play stops and video is reviewed to resolve the problem. It happens even in tennis.
As has been stated on the pages a few times, the teams even instruct their drivers to whinge so that race control can have a look at whatever the driver is crying about. And yes, it does seem distasteful.
