I remember a test where they compared the F90 Competition with the AMG GT 63 S at the same day with same weather conditions and the M5 was actually a bit faster.

I don't know how the conditions were when the AMG GT 63 S was driven at the Hockenheim ring. It seems that it was winter when they drove the M8 and considering the Pirellis as well, I guess the M8 would be faster than the AMG GT 63 S if they would drive both at the same day. But that's speculations of course.
The GT63S can come with PS4S or PSC2 tyres so that could be the difference, about the same or slower than the M5 with 300 treadwear tyres then a few seconds faster with 180 treadwear tyres.
