What happens if you put a magnafying glass under the sun and there's a rainbow on the ground?

If you place a magnifying glass under the sun and there is a rainbow on the ground, the focused sunlight passing through the magnifying glass could potentially start a fire on the surface beneath where it is concentrated. The rainbow itself is caused by sunlight being refracted and reflected by water droplets in the air, and would not affect the magnifying glass's ability to concentrate the sun's rays.
