The reason for the initial brake advantage for the G series car is due to the tires.
G series cars have wider (by 20mm) and newer model tires that simply have more grip than the F series M Cars.
The brakes on the F generation cars are just better. The difference is initial braking vs sustained braking. Swap the tires and I would wager the F car will outperform the G car in both initial and sustained braking.
