OK, here's my take FWIW. If you run your car hard, high rpm, high loads, so everything is really really hot it is highly adviseable to drive for a few minutes at approx. 2,500/3,000 rpm with little as possible load to let things cool down.

Back in Germany after hours of full throttle/high speed runs we always drove the last 2 miles to the gas station at a slower speed to get things to normal. Never a problem!

Idle at a standstill does nothing or makes things worse, air movement is needed.
