Carrying over his tradition from Red Bull and Toro Rosso, Vettel named his SF15-T "Eva".

Vettel won the Malaysian Grand Prix after capitalising on an early safety car.

Räikkönen came home in fourth place after suffering a puncture following contact with another car in the early stages of the race.

A second win was achieved in Hungary, when Vettel overtook the two Mercedes cars at the start and led for the majority of the race.

Vettel took his first pole for Ferrari and the team's first for three years – since the 2012 German Grand Prix – in Singapore, ending the dominance of qualifying for Mercedes, since the dawn of the new Formula One turbo era.
