Sebastian Vettel claimed a brilliant victory at the Singapore Grand Prix, defeating Daniel Ricciardo and Kimi Raikkonen under Marina Bay's lights. Starting from pole position, Vettel controlled the race through Singapore's demanding street circuit, delivering a flawless performance to secure Ferrari's third win of 2015. The triumph demonstrated Ferrari's competitiveness on street circuits and Vettel's mastery of Singapore, where he had won previously with Red Bull.

The race featured Vettel at his strategic and tactical best, managing the unique challenges of Singapore's night race including tire degradation and traffic. Ricciardo's excellent second place for Red Bull was their best result since Hungary, showing improved form as they adapted to Renault's power unit. Raikkonen completed a Ferrari podium with third, though he couldn't match his teammate's pace throughout the weekend.

Vettel's Singapore triumph kept Ferrari's spirits high despite Mercedes' championship dominance. The victory demonstrated that on specific circuits, Ferrari could compete with and defeat Mercedes, providing hope for future seasons. For Vettel, the win was his fourth of 2015 and confirmed his move to Ferrari as successful, even if the championship remained beyond reach with Hamilton's commanding form.
