From the fire into the frying pan, that's what former F1 driver Romain Grosjean must be thinking. Grosjean who joined IndyCar only this year joined from F1, wherein his last race, he was saved by the stewards and medics as his car caught fire. He ended up with burnt hands and seemingly his life was saved by the halo which protected his head from being smashed through the barrier. This time around again, Grosjean found himself in a car that caught fire but after exiting the vehicle, the Frenchmen rushed to a steward to get a fire extinguisher to extinguish the fire from his car in the Detroit street race.
