[edit] Notes

  • Fastest Lap: Gerhard Berger 1'20.416
  • Ayrton Senna - Finished 2nd but was excluded from the race results due to illegal front brake cooling duct dimensions.
  • Yannick Dalmas finished fifth but scored no points: he was racing in a second Larrousse car that wasn't eligible to score points because at the start of the season the team had only submitted an official entry for one car for the full championship.
