That's happening again since 3h ago.

I suggested in the past that cfbot should delay if (say) the last 5 or
10 consecutive runs all failed (or maybe all failed on the same "task").
Maybe that should only apply to re-tests but not to new patches. It
could inject 15min delays until the condition is resolved. Or it could
run retests on a longer interval like 96h instead of 24. And add a
warning or start beeping about the issue.
That would mitigate not only issues in the master branch but also issues
with CI infrastructure (cirrus/google/images).
