Agreed. I haven't seen the episode but I would have to think that it was a one time gag to reveal The Stig to be Schumacher. He was "The Stig" for that episode but can't see how (or why) he would have been schlepping back and forth to England in the middle of F1 season to test drive cars on that show especially where his identity is never shown.
