Also present was the new safety car of 2015, the Mercedes-AMG GT S.

Said Rosberg, “ I hope to do one better than my second place podium finish by securing victory at this year’s Singapore Grand Prix” and was excited about being a new father citing that “(it) is a completely new and intense experience but we’re over the moon” about it.

He eventually went on to finish the race in fourth behind Kimi Raikkonen of Scuderia Ferrari, while team mate Lewis Hamilton retired nearing the end of the race with a pedal problem resulting in a loss of engine power.

F1: Vettel wins in Singapore
Sebastian Vettel has won the 2015 Singapore Grand Prix. This is really the first weekend since the start of the V6 era that the Mercedes works team have really struggled for pace. As a result of their struggles, which the team blame on the tyres, Vettel, in his SF15-T, took the first non-Mercedes powered pole position in this era. His teammate, Kimi Raikkonen, also finished on the podium in P3, making this the first double Ferrari podium in a long time. Whilst they were expecting themselves to be competitive, they never expected to finish ahead of the 2 Mercedes cars. However, that was precisely what they did, with Ricciardo crossing the line in P2, and Kyvat, after a whole round of botched pitstops, in P6. However, a podium isn’t enough for Ricciardo; he believes that should the intruder not have been on track (Someone managed to get through security to take a stroll along the track. He was later arrested.), the safety car would not have come out, which would have given him a much better chance of closing up and passing Ferrari. Rosberg piloted the lone W06 across the line. As previously mentioned, the Mercedes team struggled for pace all weekend, citing issues with tyre temperature as the cause for the woefully slow lap times. Hamilton, who managed to fend off Rosberg and the cars behind him for much of the time he was on track, suffered a problem with his throttle pedal, which prevented his Merc from going wide-open throttle. At this point, Hamilton, still hot in the championship fight, decided to retire from the grand prix to save his engine for a later charge in the championship.
