Reluctant to start after 30 mins of running

[KentishS2]

The car is running really well except I need to turn the engine (V6) over a few times when the engine is hot and the car has stood for a little while (30 mins).

Cold start is fine.

Any ideas on the cause and a cure?

I've not had this problem myself but could it be vapourisation in the fuel rail ?? It gets (and stays) pretty hot under the bonnet.

Insulating the fuel rail may alleviate the problem.
