The actor Rowan Atkinson was taken to hospital after his car crashed, reports said.
The Blackadder and Mr Bean star is believed to have suffered a shoulder injury in the incident on the A605 in Haddon, Cambridgeshire, on Thursday night.
According to reports the 56-year-old was driving a McLaren F1 super car when it spun around several times, ran into a tree and a lamppost and caught fire.
The actor is said to have walked from the vehicle and was with a passing motorist until emergency services arrived.
East of England ambulance service said : "We were called to a single vehicle road traffic collision at 7.30 tonight on the A605 at Haddon."
A man was taken to hospital in Peterborough with "a minor shoulder injury", a spokesman added.
A spokeswoman for Cambridgeshire police said: "We can confirm that there was a single vehicle road traffic collision at around 7.30pm on the A605." Firefighters arrived on the scene to put out the blaze.
A spokesman for the star could not be reached for comment.
Atkinson, known to be a car enthusiast, recently topped the leader's board on Top Gear's star in a reasonably priced car segment.
He told presenter Jeremy Clarkson he was keen on racing and was currently driving a 1964 Ford Falcon.
