I had overheating issues with the M5 when I did the Advanced M School out at Thermal. It was in November, 2019, so ambient temperature wasn't an issue.

All the instructors knew about the issue. Two hot laps and it would go into limp mode unless you pulled off line to get clean air.

Others have reported no problems at all, so hard to tell what's what.
