I gathered he was staying to buy enough time for all of the shuttles to escape and to make sure the Kelvin made it long enough to ram the Narada. There may not have been too much he could do, but had he tried to run to a shuttle he never would have been able to program the collision course and the Narada would have swapped the shuttles off like flies.

Ah fair enough, he probably needed to co-ordinate the weapons up until they were exhausted,
then engage the collision course, rather than just set a collision course from the get go.
