If you look back at the footage of Vettel's overtake, I think that Leclerc was slow into the corner, and Perez was driving directly behind Leclerc when Vettel saw his chance. The problem came when Perez changed his line in the corner and pulled out next to Leclerc, which he was fully entitled to do, at which stage Vettel could either hit him or avoid him and spin.
If both Perez and Leclerc had stayed on Leclerc's line in the corner, Vettel would have overaken both cars and looked like a hero.

Just did not work out!
