After the race the problem, which denied Arrows, Bridgestone and Yamaha their first ever victories (in the case of Arrows and Yamaha, their only ever victories), was diagnosed as a throttle linkage failure, caused by a broken washer worth 50 pence.
Despois da carreira, o problema, que impedíu a Arrows, Bridgestone e Yamaha a súa primeira vitoria (no caso de Arrows e Yamaha, as súas únicas vitorias), diagnosticouse como un fallo de conexión do acelerador, causado por unha arandela rota que custaba 50 centimos.
