Drive some Gran Turismo 7 races with wets on a drying track. You'll be hunting for water to keep them from wearing to shreds.

Because that's how it works.
An overheating tyre will give up some of its energy , heat , to the water on the track surface.
If that water is trapped insde the tyre it will quickly reach its boiling point , well within the operating range of an f1 tyre , and basic physics demand that the change of state from liquid to gas result in expansion which when trapped inside the tyre has to increase pressure and thereby increase tyre temp and wear.
