usually when fuel line brokes make the vapors and the fuel contact to hot as hell engine parts, and this is very easy to ignite flames...
considering that the fuel tank was wrecked, it's possible that a big part of the carrera GT was covered with fuel, and so it takes just a little to blow up all...
