Yeah that's pretty awesome how he can calmly talk you through what's going on at speed. Those guys are on a different level. Driving the line is second nature for them. They need to feel what the car is doing. Anyone interested in this should read a Ross Bentley book. He's always talking about how driving needs to be subconscious so you focus on feedback from the car. Awesome stuff.

I'm pretty sure he's doing a voice over after the session.

Either way my point was he's less focused on his line and more on what the car is telling him
