Fastest lap: Riccardo Patrese*, 1:26.058 (138.548 km/h)
* Due to the wet conditions, it is not believed that Patrese could lap 1.5
seconds faster on that particular lap than the others on a dry track. It
is more likely that Carlos Reutemann set the fastest lap with 1:27.418
(136.393 km/h on lap 40).
