Don't blindly follow what you see on a DVD. Mr. Ichishima said "just use the oil honda recommends" because in Japan, the oil spec'd for the Type R is a fully synthetic 5w-40. It's the Ultra Gold in the pic below:



Honda oil in Australia is a mineral 10w-30, which will thin out when put under pressure on the track.
