After Vettel's crash, and when it was obvious that he wasn't getting anywhere near the points, why did Ferrari keep him out there circulating? Why not retire him and save the miles on the motor (sorry, power unit)/transmission/turbo for future races?

I thought perhaps they would bring him in for a third stop with about 2 laps left, and switch him to softs to try to get FTD. It may not have been worth a point, as he wasn't in the top 10. But it's good for morale, and at least it would be one less point for the Mercs.
