Overnight joint-leader GM Fabiano Caruana raced clear ahead of the rest of the field as he won an important game with the black pieces against GM Vachier-Lagrave in the 4th round of the Khanty-Mansiysk FIDE GP 2015. The latter over-extended on all fronts in the middlegame and Caruana was spot on in taking advantage of the same.
Meanwhile, the rest of the games ended in draws.
