Surely the whole idea of them creating 'The Stig' and keeping him anonymous is so they can swap him/her around as necessary.

For example: They can substitute a manufacturers nomnated test driver when they want to race an expensive supercar around their test track and the manufacturer will only let their driver drive - a frequent occurence.
