The G80 is faster in this case but for how long? You're not going to take your car to the track to do 1 lap.
What we do know is that according to this video at least, the car is very well balanced, which for 99% of drivers who don't track, that is perfect.
I'm actually glad that the Alfa came out and made BMW up their game. Competition, pardon the pun, is a good thing.

To be honest when Sutcliffe mentions the QF was riding on P Zero Corsa supercar tires used on the 911 Turbo S, Aventador, McLaren's etc, I thought it was going to put up the better time as they are closer to Cup 2's than the PS4S tires. It makes the M3's time even more impressive.
