The race team found that the one system setup ran out of suppression material too fast. During their fire, the fuel fire kept reigniting.

The other thing they emphasized heavily was to be damn sure any and all holes between the cockpit and the engine and fuel cell areas were sealed. The burns received by the driver (not bad, fortunately) were almost all caused by fire breaching the firewalls and floor via uncovered holes.
