I mean...HAM has been at Ferrari for the entire winter. I assume they have a state of the art racing simulator with all kinds of advanced software to mimic conditions costing millions and I assume that HAM has spent dozens if not hundreds of hours in that simulator.
But with that conversation it just seems that he's not aware of the basic functionality of the features of the car, or how the car and those features will respond in the various conditions.
How is that possible? What button to press on his wheel and when (and why) should be 2nd nature to a professional racing driver. That's what they train for I imagine...
Especially a veteran with 10+ years of experience.
Conversations like this make him look mentally challenged...

I may be wrong but think I read somewhere LEW hates simulators and actually not gone the whole hog with them, so its like 'you chose me so accept that I do some things my way for the better'.
