Ferrari F430 Spider bursts into flames

"WCF has a tragic death to report, a Ferrari F430 Spider burst into flames in Singapore. While details are limited, the fire occurred on April 28th at 11:56 am (local time). The Singapore Civil Defense Force responded by sending a fire engine and a 'Red Rhino' (a small ATV with a water pump).

Despite the SCDF's quick response, the car appears to be a total loss. Virtually everything, from the A-pillar back, was transformed into molten metal. Thankfully, no one was injured."

This is really scary and fortunately no one got hurt. Ive heard of this before but i wouldn't want to own an F-car and have to worry about something like this. How can/does this happen?

A leak in the gas line coupled with a spark is all that I can think of.

Glad nobody was injured.

Anyone else find it strange how virtually no one is watching this car burn to the ground? If that were America there would be 1,000 people gawking at the fireball on the side of the road, tweeting to all their homies, and posting photos to facebook.
