After his Ferrari engine stopped working, Raikkonen finds a spot on the track to park his car safely. When the car finally stops, the flames shoot out. However, in Kimi's opinion, the marshalls take far too long to extinguish the car, after which he takes over the fire extinguisher himself.

Raikkonen quickly extinguishes the car, showing once again that the Finn is the most experienced driver on the grid.
