EDIT: Nevermind...wrong magazine. Nevertheless....what more valuable information would a professional driver's time provide? A hero time? Nobody buying these cars are "professional" drivers by any account. So what they're providing is the number a really, really, really good driver can provide on the same track with all of these hundreds of cars. That is invaluable.
A pro driver would provide consistency that can only be found with those that have the years of experience and training. It's the only way for a good comparison.

What happens when you have a "really good" driver put lap times up last year and a "really really really good driver" put up lap times this year? Consistency.
