It does that because the suspension setup is not ideal for racing, it should rather roll and keep the wheels on the ground. The roll center and cg are high. Also rear grip is good because there is lower weight on the back, and front grip is lower because of that. So in combination with that it lifts the wheel

Isn't the M2 CS on pilot sport cup 2's which are about 1-2 seconds faster than pilot sport 4s's on the Yaris just because of the tyre? So if the tyre is the same, the Yaris and M2 CS would have the same time roughly? I'm mightly disappointed by the M2 CS if that's the case.

They're both great tires, I see a lot of people do this, it basically gives you the out out of the box / new / stock car results. You could swap to a stickier tire, but then it's like, ok, maybe it would lose a few more seconds with better brake pads, now you're adding a tune for your upgraded intercooler and bigger turbo and it's not representative of what you get when you buy the car in the stock form :D

Good to see some on track stuff, beats the drag races hands down in my opinion.

Nice video, interesting comparison

As an ST owner, i have to agree with mat, the standard brakes on the car aren’t the strongest or the most confidence inspiring. Some EBC braided brake lines, J hook discs and Yellowstuff pads make a huge difference. i reccomend that to any ST owner
