Flexfill 98A and ambient temperature

Hi,
Actually in south of France the weather is pleasant and we have temperature about 30°C.
Nice to go to the sea but not so good to print Flexfill 98A although by night 😉
My small experience (i'm newbie in 3D printing), I have successfully ran a print with Flexfill 98A about 2 weeks ago and the weather was rainy (fine 😉 ).
This evening I've tried with the same settings to print another piece but... The filament roll-up around the pulleys :-).
First I thought the idler threads was to tighten, so I loose them to the maximum and still beautiful loop going out from the E-Axis 🙂
I search around the web, check the pulleys, temperature, slicer, ... with the tips I found. Still the same issue.
And I was feeling the filament was like a spaghetti too cooked.

40% OK until 5% of the print....
I will try lower value.

So I think hot ambient temperature and Flexfill 98A are not compatible with high print speed.
Does it exist a table relating to print speed and ambient temperature ?

MK3 kit.
