And the drivers and authors of this AMS article (Jens Dralle->MotoGP-M4/Christian Gebhardt->M3) are also main testers of SPORTAUTO together with the wellknown Supertest driver and author HvS.
Maybe it comes from BMW during the press drives. IIRC, BMW said that the F8X was 15sec quicker that the E9X around the 'ring. AMS probably simply deduced 15sec from their 8:05 time with the E9X.
