Multicast: Querier vs DR

Hi group,

I'm trying to understand the situation that exists when there are multiple PIM
routers on a common Ethernet:

R1 R2
 | |
-----------------
 host host

I know that sometimes the same router will be both the DR and the Querier but
at other times these functions will be on different routers.

Can someone help me out and explain when these functions will be on the same
router and when they won't?

Thanks in advance.
