Congrats to Ferrari for having enough influence to have the rules changed twice in the middle of a season to help them gain some ground. While other teams concentrate on technological innovation to win races, they rely on political influence. They are treated with these kid gloves just because of their historical significance to the sport. The car is not as well rounded, not as consistent, and not as technically advanced as the others so they get the rules changed to bring the other teams back to their level. It's fucking pathetic.
That being said, it wasn't the stop that caused Vettel to fall back. That cost him a few seconds, for sure, but certainly not the 20 seconds that separated the two.
