On the plus side, Vettel would have faster rubber to restart the race, allowing him to exploit the empty track ahead of him.

Simply states what I have been saying. Ferrari went for the aggressive strategy. Go with the softest tire, clear track, and try to build a gap. Like I said he couldn't pull the gap they thought he could and strategy ended up failing. Vettel's only chance was to pull a gap and to think he wasn't trying is foolish. Vettel got the gap up to 4 sec at one point, then his tires went off. With the 2.9 sec/lap delta between the supersofts and mediums, at that point the gap should have been more. Role reversal, the Mercedes would have pulled a much larger gap.
