Once again for the cheap seats...
Compared to the people that make these multi- million dollar decisions, you know nothing.
Simply spewing your opinion does not change that, no matter how much you wring your hands.
Thanks for letting me know that you are just an idiot who has no scope of considering or even reading a different perspective. I will let you marinate in your own mediocrity of being a blind Ferrari fanboy. Good for you.
Blind? Because I don't see the ghosts that you invent?
I run a business. I make decisions that are best for my business. Not everything that is best translates to math. Sometimes the intangibles cannot be quantatified.
Maybe you shouldn't speculate that your opinion of how someone else should run theirs somehow matters.
I guess you are Kimi Raikkonen of your business. Then it's not hard to imagine how you develop your business.
This is a platform that allows people to express opinions, argue and counter argue about opinions and if you can't handle being argued, then maybe you shouldn't come here. Neither I nor most people here would WANT OUR OPINIONS to matter. It is what it is, just opinions.
And you have deviated from the point. The argument was about driver's role in developing cars and how driver's impact is not as significant as it was, with the evolution of devices, techniques and tools. You are going in all nonsense directions and telling me about your business and at all, which I hardly care.
If you are more than just a keyboard typer, then spend sometime learning what F1 car designing and development is all about. May be then you can comprehend the complexities involved, expertise required and why some designers are far bigger than others. Specifically, the role of engineers and designers in an F1 team and what a Development Driver does for team and why their hire one.

Analysis: How Ferrari turned update headache into Hungary glory
In fact, Ferrari test driver Antonio Giovinazzi had put behind him his red flag in the Haas in FP1 and was already flying back to Maranello for some extra work.
His role there was an important late-night shift in the simulator – as is regularly done at European races – to get to the bottom of why things had not been so good on track with the updates.
The focus in particular was of getting the balance right, because the data showed the downforce was there with the individual parts, but the drivers could not extract the full performance because the way they interacted did not click in delivering a feeling of confidence for the drivers.
Giovinazzi pulled an all-nighter to keep running through things and help deliver the answers – which was in simple essence a well honed set-up to help perfect the SF70H's aero balance, so that all the performance from the individual parts could be unleashed.
By the time that Vettel and Raikkonen emerged from the pits at the Hungaroring on Saturday morning, the car was transformed and there was no looking back.
I doubt if you are capable of grasping any of this. Still I tried.
