Driver took glove off because he has a hard time grabbing belt strap with it on. And for the fire bottle! There is also a nozzle in the cockpit, so if you pull it, your getting a face full of fire extinguisher. Bottle is a last resort. Big shout out to Merrillville Speedway fire crew, they put the flame out quickly, minimizing damage so we could race the feature.
I'd call that a small fire, and the driver obviously knew he needed to get out. I'm sure if the entire car was engulfed, he wouldn't have taken the gloves off. I get your point though.
Beautiful line off 4 in the feature
Thanks Curtis 🍻
