Those of us in East Anglia who saw a normal level of sunshine in May barely saw a drop of rain though!

No, it was shallow cultivated in the autumn and drilled into that in March

None of the Gp3’s are amazing, Firefly’s poor on Septoria and had a shocker last year in many places, it was as good as the other Gp3’s for us so it stayed albeit with a higher fungicide spend after CTL went
Late drilled in the east is a different situation to me though
