During the qualifying session at Sochi, Sebastian Vettel played the role of a Marshall. During a flying lap, Vettel lost his rear and ended up crashing into the wall. Seconds after his car came to a halt, Vettel jumped out of his cockpit.
It would have been normal had Vettel left the track. But that was not the case. Vettel went on to the track and cleared the debris and made a safer path for other cars to drive through.
