"Investigators found the plane did not slow down because the crew eased off the key braking systems on the wet runway.
The speed brakes retracted after the plane touched down, which disengaged the automatic brakes, and reverse thrust was later reduced, making it harder to slow the aircraft."

It’s a jet. They slow down by reversing thrust not by rubber on pavement.
