Flatspotting intensity and likelihood is proportional to the temp differential between the tire and the surface when the car gets parked. So when very hot tires are parked over a very cold surface (cement) flatspotting occurs as the tire cools off -- temporary flatspotting, of course. Perhaps, not taking too many hot turns, accelerations, and breaking right before parking it could help. Rubber mats also help to insulate from the cold floor. Every tire is susceptible to this, but more so are softer compounds (high perf, sport tires).
