Zak Brown also has a Hakinen McLaren (and that was before he got his hands on the keys to the McLaren garages!)

That's part of the reason you see a lot of the cars in EuroBOSS (or whatever it's called these days) running with different engines - there were a lot of Judd powered cars last time I saw it. The correct engines are too complex / lack of spares / too expensive - some of these cars were running in the 'throw the engine away after each session' era (slight exaggeration but certainly they weren't built with longevity in mind!).
