      The best thing they could have done is stayed with the vehicle.... It was stuck and stable... At least stay put until absolutely no other choice but to risk leaving the safety of your vehicle. Don't move until a crew can get there and help you in the swift waters. If you get swept up with help there they can send help after you. You get swept up while they're not there then you're on your own.

      Not to mention, it's not a given that other competitors will help you, they are not obligated to. And non-competitors aren't allowed to touch your car, unless you forfeit the race and give up entirely.

Also these guys live for the thrill of these rough moments on the edge, of life or death. Not everyone understands that, or would do the same, that's ok, but don't project your believes on others.
      You probably have a clue about swift water rescues, they have no clue, and you weren't there. Btw there is a firefighter team in the race with a truck, a pity they weren't there at that time.
      People die during Dakar rallies, because it's an extreme sport, just like cliff jumping, skydiving, or rock climbing. Despite all modern safety rules, equipment, precautions and experience. That danger is part of the appeal for people who join. It's not for everyone, or rather, it's not for most people.
