On the twistier parts of the track the difference in lap times between G82 and F82 is much smaller, in sector 3 the G82 on PS4S is avtually a tad slower than the F82...
Tire development should not be underestimated, but on this track the largest chunk of time is gained on a sector where that is of less importance.
Also compared to the 911 Carrera lap in the post below with only 0,02 sec difference points to a very capable car.

OK, so if I read this right, the G82 gains most of its advantage over the F82 on the Sachsenring in the high speed sector where its significantly greater top end acceleration matters most, and gains little or nothing at all over the F82 in the sections where handling matters most despite being shod with the much better PS4S?
