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.
Yes, but presumably the F82 M4 was on MPSS? What would it do on MP4S?

The F82 M4 CS did a 1:34.01 on the earlier Cup2's. From memory the CS has lighter 763m wheels and carbon bonnet/hood over the regular M4 competition.
G82 doesn't get the ridiculously heavy 666m and had the carbon seat option, so pretty close spec wise. Seats more than cancel out the carbon hood weight saving.

What time would a F82 CS do with the connect Cup2's and an additional 60hp? I think lap times would be almost identical to G82 comp with Cup2's.

Which is not bad for the G82 as it is 94kg heavier than the CS.
