A slight possibility, it is a know fact that atmospherics can have a big say in a cars performance, quite a few years back Ferrari discovered their cars were noticeably quicker on damp days in testing and developed a fine water spray system into the air induction .On race day obviously everyone are under the same conditions, but qualifying stretches over many hours..
I see Max is having a bit of a winge over track conditions, saying its very slippery, {not slippery just for you Max.) I remember Senna in his Karting and formula junior days, came to the uk and was winning everything unless it rained. He contacted his father in Brazil and had a water spray system fitted to his own circuit on his fathers land. When he went back to Brazil he practiced on a wet surface for three months solid. The rest is history.
