Sorry, ME7. I'm all for Sirebel's plan. What you propose would be ok if, say, only the top 15 scores counted towards the team score. You could have five "developmental" drivers who are learning the ropes. in fact, it would make sense for the top teams to be able to do that. Have a reserve talent pool of people available to jump in when there is a racer who can't participate. Having said that, pulling from another team is NOT ok. I don't know of a single sport out there where a team can go to a different team and say "Hey, our goalie isn't performing up to snuff, can we get yours?" or go to the free agent pool and hire someone to come in and take a player's place in the middle of a game. Even in sports where there is a developmental team, for example Baseball which has farm teams. They don't pull a player up from a lower team to replace a player in the middle of a game.

F1 teams have a reserve driver if something happens to one of theirs, or they hire or "borrow" a driver from another team BETWEEN events.

Keeping team rosters locked until after an event just makes sense. Having only the top 15 scores of an even count makes even more sense.
