Why wait for help when you can handle the problem right now?
Despite what Talladega Nights may have led you to believe, racing drivers are much more calm around fire than the average person. No matter how on fire a car may seem from the outside, drivers often calmly finish their procedures before exiting and walking away at a normal pace. Some even go a step further and help the fire-fighting team. Yesterday, IMSA Jan Heylen went even further than that and put out an entire substantial fire himself.
16 Porsche 911 GT3 R during the closing laps of this year's Petit Le Mans when the car caught fire after contact with a competitor, eventually erupting into a fireball that engulfed the whole engine bay. He then pulled over at a marshal's post, hoping someone could put the fire out and save the car. When nobody leapt into action, he simply asked for a fire extinguisher, walked back to the rear of the Porsche, and put the fire out himself.
