It wasn't just VER's tire degredation that allowed HAM to overcome such a massive deficit....perhaps it's HAM's driving acumen and 5X F1 WDC status as well:

Positive guys . The tires from MAX were completely shot.
Each lap MAX was losing between 1-2 sec. The moment when Lewis overtook MAX was like the RB15 was standing still...
I heard the onboard radio from MAX about his tires .Honestly it was actually heartbraking. MAX had no chance to make it ...While Lewis was approaching on fresh tires like a bullet !
The Merc strategy worked perfectly ...
