He did make a brave comeback, and it's great to have him back.
However, he gets paid too much money for his talents, to have his pit crew instruct him on driving tactics.
It's unheard of, in the prima donna circles of F1 racing drivers.
Martin Brundle almost choked on his microphone when he heard this, too.
That's what made me wonder what goes on.

Frankly, as 'Coaching' from the sidelines is banned in many forms of 'Sport' (ie Tennis) then I really believe it should be eliminated from the so-called top tier of racing.
In fact, except for NASCAR (they can't function without spotters due too their roundy-roundy tracks) I'd ban it completly.
That includes our V8 series BTW.
MotoGP and Superbikes rely on pit boards, and seem to do very well without electronic hand holding.
Top level car drivers should be capable of making their own decisions ........
If it's a team sport then the vehicles should be capable of seating the entire team!
Bus racing anyone?
