In that situation the first line of defence should be the onboard extinguisher (yes, they can actually be used!); if the driver's really in danger then I'd expect the rescue unit to have been called for & the race to have been red flagged, thus obviating any need to carry bottles across a LIVE track.

As a marshal my first priority is my personal safety - I'm no hero!
