Not for the other reason, the only reason is the mid season test is banned.
no midseason test, they teams will need other way to test their KERS.
the clearest exampale is Ferrari share the KERS with PSA's on WRC & Le Mans. Ferrari said they have to plan of KERS, 1 is Magneti, the other is theirselves. I think the second one is based on PSA's data.
Also, Ferrari got A1GP, I think that we will see the A1 car test with KERS system on track---may not provide to the race, but it can beg the test banned rule of F1, because it is a A1 Demo car test!
If Ferrari really do this, other manufacture will copy it very fast: Renault have GP2 , WFR, or they can do this on Nissan. Toyota have Formula Nipon, Super GT & S-Taikyu. Williams have F2, BMW still got F.BMW, if Honda designed to rejoin F1 in future, they can test KERS on IRL!
and than, the KERS makers can be provide their system to other races like Superleague, Formula Master...etc or some tuned car races like Speed World Challenge & Nurburing 24hr....
