Yep, if they tyres are already warmed, you can pop in and get the undercut by being faster, quicker. But, if there's no heaters and the rubber isn't sticky cold - you'll lose lots more places, and add more risk of crashing, changing of places, shuffling of the feild etc.
@Tetractys I see. Thanks for explaining
To add onto that, I think it brings to the forefront each drivers own skill at warming up the tires and the risk vs rewards of being extra aggressive for quicker tire warmup could be interesting.
