After V1, your hands should be nowhere near the throttles, to help prevent any reflex action involving the throttles, until a safe height is reached. So if you are operating an aircraft with a yoke, then grab the other "horn."

There maybe an exception to this, in the event of a double engine failure on a 4engined heavy a/c just after V1.

I also stand to be corrected!
