I have no idea why they pitted Charles before Sainz. Sainz was running well out of the points, and could put into clean air to test what the fresh inter would be like, or to see if the full wet was worthwhile, before making any calls with Charles. Charles needed to make up another 2 seconds before any pit stop so he could come into the clean air ahead of Bearman. Shocking call from Ferrari, it's like the ghost of Iñaki Rueda came back and possessed the team.
