Hockenheim is a short track and it is less technical than Sachensenring. The M5 F90 CP will have a smaller difference than 0.4s, I am almost sure. The M5 F10 CP was far less wayward than the non CP. Although frankly it doesn't really matter. I think whoever buys the CP doesn't buy it for the extra 5% of performance it offers, I think they buy it for the feel, as it transmits a lot more feel and exhaust noise (as said by most people who drove both). Nevertheless both M5's are pretty epic.
Oh I'm not doubting your prediction, I was merely giving SA's result on Hockenheim. And yeah I don't think most of us are buying CP for that extra performance which we can't really exploit.
