Having just watched the YouTube video, how, exactly?
Car comes to a halt, marshals are there with extinguishers in action as quickly as they can possibly run safely, 8 seconds from the point the car passes them to the point when extinguishant is deployed, with the fire car rolling to a halt 12 seconds later. Pretty good response time by anyone's standards.
Driver might have bought himself time by hitting the onboard systems (don't know if he did), full face helmet provides better protection than open, also don't know if driver put the electrics off which may help depending on the exact cause of the conflagration.
If anyone, Liam especially, thinks they can do better, volunteering forms are online. Fill them in and put your money where your mouths/typewriters are.
