After any fire incident you would expect that if there is an identifiable fault it would be steadily checked on like for like vehicles. My thoughts on hearing of the fire were to do with to the new fan and exhaust mods the Mercs have received. It was noted yesterday that allocations of Mercs was a bit mixed, so whatever the possible cause(s), perhaps they were being checked. You would expect the company to have a vigorous approach to such incidents, especially when stuff like this finds it difficult to avoid the Press.
