Remember it is just BTG (not full course which is not done any more on track days) and IMO it looked like he was driving quite well. Smooth, using the entire track and looked like he knew the course very well.
BTG (which eliminates most of the straight cuts 30ish seconds off), Trofeo tires cuts off 10-20 seconds I'd guess, and the KW Clubsports probably help a bit too. Doubt if anyone in their right mind pushes 10/10ths at the ring on a tourist day, but looked like he was driving quite nicely. Those Trofeo tires are almost slicks, so you're not going to see a lot of drifting and sliding with them like PSS tires. Looked very legit to me. Here's a little more prepped E92 BTG lap doing 7:27 for comparison:
