Even Martin was not the quickest during the last laps of his amazing wet stint. When the track started drying, the Dunlop-shod Mercs were by far the quickest in the mixed conditions (better intermediate rubber?) and when it was time for slicks, Martin with his Michelins had again the advantage. Nothing away from the young Belgian's great performance, but it was a bit exaggerated with the circumstances and difference in tyre performance and it's a bit unfair to say his teammates would have been slow.
