I'm not understanding the premise that Nakajima or Kobayashi are poor drivers to start with, they've been far less of a liability than Davidson's declining pace or Lapierre's crashing. Or why it would ever be expected that Toyota steal contracted national championship drivers from GM factory teams instead of using similar or higher level national championship drivers from Toyota teams. Kunimoto was weak at Spa but he beat Lotterer head to head in identical single seaters last year, what do you want?
If you were going to hire drivers from the US you'd want Bourdais, Pagenaud, and Dixon anyways. (unsurprisingly two of them are already signed to a factory sports car team and the other probably isn't available)
