Formula one drivers Nelson Piquet Jr, David Coulthard and Sebastian Vettel could be at the centre of an elaborate and imminent musical-chairs scenario.
Stage one of the rearrangement, according to the rumour, would be the replacement of rookie Piquet - who has struggled in the high profile Renault seat so far this season - by F1 veteran Coulthard, who currently drives for Renault-powered Red Bull.
22-year-old Piquet, meanwhile, would be slotted into Vettel's Toro Rosso seat, with the burgeoning German to fill Coulthard's vacant spot at parent outfit RBR.

That could be interesting

Absolutely not.

That sounds very illogical.
Okay, I can understand Vettel's move to Red Bull (it sounds actually logical).
I can also understand if Piquet is sent to lower team (STR) to gain some confidence or whatever.

But DC at Renault? How on earth can this possibly happen? Even Sato or Davidson would be a better choice - at least they won't crash that much.

Davidson better than DC? Good one.
Davidson is a bunny and I for one am glad his F1 career appears to be over.
DC is a level above both of Sato and "ant."

This would be veeery interesting to see since I find it more or less logical until we get to the point of putting DC in a Renault. He isn´t in the best of his seasons, and Renault is also... let´s say "struggling".

No doubt DC is better driver than Sato (and obiously than Davidson), but at this moment maybe he´s not the best candidate. Maybe Sato... or why not, Grosjean?

Be very interesting to see DC against Alonso. May have a suprising result which will also show how quick Webber is.

Why not have Webber against Alonso, seeing as Alonso would beat DC?

Umm. If DC joins Renault, it would certainly take same time to adjust to the car and we won't get a proper comparison anyway.

IMO hiring a driver midseason is beneficial only if he is engaged with the team in the long run. With Vettel and Red Bull this would be the case. We have often seen a driver struggling for half a season in a new team and in a new car. So why hire a driver for half a year to find competitiveness just for the last race of the year and then bye-bye?! In that case better promote a test driver, who is already familiar with the car (like McLaren did with de la Rosa in 2006). On the flip side for example hiring Villeneuve by Renault at the end of 2004 didn't make any sense at all.

this is making it to other online news so it may be true

http://www.bleacherreport.com/articl...after-Montreal-

sources close to Renault, RBR and STR let slip of a cunning plan involving three of their drivers: David Coulthard, Nelson Piquet and Sebastien Vettel in a "musical chair" style reshuffle.
