The BMW specialist shop that modified my M240i for track use said that oil starvation was not an issue. Now, that's with the B58 motor, and not the N55 motor in your car. Perhaps N55 owners will weigh in with their experiences.
I was informed that fuel starvation was the issue to look out for in this regard, and to keep the fuel tank at least 1/2 full when negotiating right-hand turns with moderate-to-high lateral g-forces.
