I'd have assumed so too, due to more viscous oil, but I could also believe an argument that a hotter engine might be harder to turn - expansion of the piston rings making for a tighter fit, residual compression in some cylinders which would have drained away overnight when things cool and loosen?I'd expect a failing starter motor to be at its worst turning over a cold engine - unless the heat is affecting the motor.
