Italian Andrea de Cesaris finished second in an Alfa Romeo, with another Italian, Riccardo Patrese, third in a Brabham-BMW.
Drivers' Championship leader, Frenchman Alain Prost, could only manage fourth in his Renault, but nonetheless extended his lead in the championship to nine points over Brazilian Nelson Piquet, who failed to score in the other Brabham-BMW.
