On a successful team, some people are going to have to do some things that they don't want to. If your best driver happens to be someone who is reluctant to undertake the role and therefore does not try out, you would never know who your best driver is.

As a result of putting your third, fourth, fifth best person into the driver role, all of the hours of work and sacrifice that the rest of the team has made may come to nothing.

Ideally, you will put people where they are best suited, by self-interest, skill, and temperament. However, there will be cases where people have to suck it in and do what's best for the team.
