I'm with you at some point, but racing is not cheap, especially these days.
Having two more manufacturer ties is pretty acceptable IMO, take Alex Job Racing for example, they run a Lotus GTE in 2012 alongside a 997 Cup(the latter took ALMS GTC title), then a Ferrari GTE alongside a Porsche GTC this season, plus an Audi early this year at Daytona'24(and took the GT honor) That makes 4 different brands in 2 years; Larbre also had their Corvette and Porsche finishing 1-2 in 2011 at lemans; Talking about all over the place, we have AF Corse..
Besides the Oreca P2 this time and the Ford in Zhuhai, Craft also attend PCCA full season in conjunction with Nexus Racing, so they've come across no les than 4 manufacturers this year. I assume AMR's effort to them means one or two factory driver(s) at a time with some technical support, money comes mostly from gentle drivers and sponsors.
Once you got an LM24 entry and enough budget, line-up is not a problem, especially in GTE AM class where regulation allows only 1 professional driver per car. AAI on the other hand had BMW's Jorg Muller for Macau GT weeks before.
