Juncadella admitted to Spain's AS newspaper that he heard the very same rumours. But he said: "You have to remember that I have never sat in the (2013 Mercedes) car and so far have done only one formula one test for Ferrari. "So now I can replace Hamilton in an emergency?" he asked rhetorically. Juncadella confirmed, however, that his management is in talks with Mercedes about a F1 role. "I can imagine combining DTM with some tasks in the formula one team, perhaps as a development driver, but not the third driver," he insisted. "This would help me a lot," he added.
