Not really. They know what their splits are while driving and his lap started slower than his best. He didn't think he would be able to improve his time and normally, he would probably be correct. What he didn't know was that the conditions were improving in the last sector and the guys that were posting faster times were making it up in that part of the track.
It was an unusual circumstance and his team should have been on the radio telling him this. They can see it on the timing screens and he can't see it until he gets to that section of the track.
He's not stupid, it was just a weird end to the session.
