Well I'd say if I were the owner of a 'backmarker' team, and had a driver who couldn't do the car justice on a road circuit, I don't think I would have a problem sticking a circuit racing pro in there. Shouldn't the best man win the race?
I agree with Emfa there that they, in the overall scheme of things don't do much to the championship, the only exception I could see is if the race was held at the end of the season, and the teams hired these guns to go out there and upset the result of the race/championship.
