Deja Vu All Over Again

So I get the mail when I came home tonight and there was the latest Auto Week (well now it's Auto-Every-Other-Week) with a picture of the new MaClaren MP4-12C on the cover. But I'm thinking I've already got this issue - What's the deal? So I check the reading materials stack and what do I discover but the exact same cover on the Road & Track I got the week before. What are the odds of that ever happening? And even more strange that R&T was first since part of AW's appeal is it generally has stuff first.

Autoweek seemed to use the supplied press photos from the manufacturers in the past, due to quick deadline ? I'm surprised R&T didn't shoot their own cover.

I know, it is not the cover, but still interesting how all the mags use the same pics...
