Small disclaimer: he’s a former rally driver and at present the proprietor of an enormous Italian BMW dealership, so he has to advertise new automobiles for gross sales causes (my opinion).
Fast recap:
– The video was recorded on a barely wet day, whereas the lap occasions had been taken on a dry day.
– G87 each with Pzero, CS with Pilot SuperSport.
– G87 a bit extra enjoyable and reactive than the G82.
– F87 extra responsive and nervous, even an excessive amount of for his style.
– In some corners (lengthy and quick) the MT drifts higher as a result of it will possibly maintain 2nd gear, in others (gradual) the AT drifts higher as a result of the shorter 2nd gear delivers extra torque at low pace.
– The slower shifts of the MT are balanced by the less shifts wanted on a lap as a result of longer ratios.
– He did not really feel a lot distinction between the AT and MT on the G87, whereas the guide CS (this one) was a lot slower and worse than the CS DKG he had pushed a while in the past, primarily due to the tires (SS vs Cup2).
– He didn’t really feel the load of the G87 (a minimum of for one lap).
– Total, he preferred the G87 higher (and gave me the sensation that the automated greater than the guide).
– His watch is extra fascinating and more durable to have than the M2.
