The 7:28 time by M4 GTS is done by BMW factory driver. These drivers are significantly faster than magazine drivers because they test and drive these cars for months and months and directly involved in the development of the cars.
Magazine drivers get the car usually for a few hours or maybe a day and simply can't extract everything out of the car in that short amount of time compared to a factory racing driver who drives the crap out of it everyday

The time I presented was with same driver to minimize driver skill being a significant factor.

None of this means the F8x CS is not a great car!
