The 1981 Indianapolis 500 race became notable for an incident involving methanol, which burns with an invisible flame. During the race, a collision caused a fire that was not immediately visible. Methanol burns with a clear flame that isn’t easily seen in daylight, which makes the fire challenging to detect initially. Several race cars and a safety vehicle were involved in the incident, but , the response was quick once the fire was realized. | History In Pictures

@earthspctr on Instagram: "Fire looks violent, but not all flames behave the same. This demonstration uses methanol, a fuel that burns quickly and at a relatively low temperature, releasing energy faster than the skin can absorb it. Because contact time is brief, heat transfer remains minimal. No stunts, no tricks — just chemistry and controlled exposure. This is how professionals safely demonstrate risk. When you understand the system, danger becomes predictable."

That delay in detection led to second-degree burns for Mears and several crew members before foam extinguishers finally put it out. #Indy500 #RacingHistory #Motorsports #MethanolFire #SafetyInRacing DidYouKnow"
