* Neither Gartner nor Berger were eligible for championship points, as they were driving their teams' "second entry" and because the team had only entered one car for the entire championship, the second entry was ineligible to score points.

Notes [edit]

• Ayrton Senna, regular driver for Toleman, was substituted with Pierluigi Martini.
• Riccardo Patrese, last podium for an Alfa Romeo.
• Only World Championship Grand Prix where 3 Austrians finished in the top 6.
