Pre-Race Report

Championship standings

Prost leads the championship after his victory in South Africa, with Senna second and Mark Blundell third.

Previous race

At Kyalami, Prost won on his Williams debut by over a minute from Senna. Hill spun early and lost positions while Schumacher tangled with Senna on lap 40, spinning out of third place. Sauber scored points in their first ever race, with Lehto finishing fifth.

Between-race developments

After the South African Grand Prix, two changes were made to the qualifying system. Each driver is now limited to 12 laps in both qualifying sessions. The number of cars permitted to start the race was initially reduced from 26 to 24, but teams unanimously agreed to raise this to 25 to ensure every team could qualify at least one car — meaning one driver misses each race.

Entrants

Senna races at Interlagos, his home circuit, as he continues his race-by-race arrangement with McLaren.
