Also, perhaps Porsche simulated the manual time? AP is keen to point out one gains a half a car length per shift with PDK-S. Maybe they added up the total number of shifts and multiplied it by how much slower the shift is than PDK-S? Just guessing.
Not a Ring time, but 911R was faster than 991.1 GT3 at Hockenheim:

Holy ****, I thought I didn't read it right.

That's punching way above its weight.
I'm floored.
Are we sure this doesn't have MPSC2 N1 cheater tires a la AMG GT R?

Nice result and it now proves without a doubt that yellow is faster than white.

I watched the video just watching his hands. I can't believe the time he set with so little need for correction. I love watching these professionals, from the in car camera it looks like he is out for a Sunday drive. Seems pretty stable under braking as well.

Interesting the car/he is shifting between 8500 and 8800 rpm.
