Same training here as in mutts company. Hands have to be moved away from the thrust levers at the V1 call (which in case of the auto-callout is V1 - 2kts). Besides, the aircraft should be in a trimmed out state of flight when engaging the autoflight system which would mean that removing ones hand from the thrust levers to lazily reach up and push the autopilot engage button is an absolute non-issue.
