They also can see if a driver picks up the advise they give him. Vandoorne for example was told to adapt his style because he was leaning too much on his GP2-style and that just did not work. Likewise he wanted the team to adapt a bit more towards him.
Probably the only ones who know if (enough) progress has been made are McLaren and Vandoorne.
And he obviously has. We can all tell that from the last few weekends?
