It's not uncommon for us mere mortals often get walked out the door the moment our employers decide we part so we don't steal competitive secrets. An F1 driver has plenty of insight into car development....
There are only 6 or maybe 8 seats that have a chance at the WDC. To the extent the teams develop their cars to suit a particular driving style, having the knowledge of who is driving the car helps guide the development.
