It appears he just sat there and watched the end of the runway appear at a great rate of knots.. and did nothing, up to and including, “ I have control”. This could make a great CRM study.
My thinking exactly. I just can’t understand it. Rotate call start rotation. If PF isn’t doing it within straight away I would be taking control.

Has to be something else. Incorrect VR or something. I can’t believe 4 pilots would just sit barrelling down the runway.
