the M would probably have taken it anyways, but it would have made more sense

Sedan and coupe are identical in performance. Zero differences.

Tracy is the open wheel professional racer while Foust is the drifter so I would think the other way around. Anyway, seemed like Tracy was completely defensive the whole time while Foust was doing some very positively aggressive driving around the course.

IS-F did technically win one straight line acceleration. Before Tracy figured out launch control, in the first run he tried to stomp it off the line. He was complaining already that DCT lags for a few split seconds and then revs up and drops the clutch. That resulted in IS-F getting away easily.
In the 0 - 100 - 0 mph, the IS-F got a clean start and won the acceleration part, but M3 braked much shorter winning the test.
