Qualifying - Spain
The Williams-Renault was again the car to be in on a Saturday, with Jean Alesi taking pole ahead of team-mate Thierry Boutsen. The second row of the grid was made up of the two Arrows-Hondas of Pierluigi Martini and Derek Warwick. The two by two trend continued onto the third row with Michael Schumacher out qualifying his Ferrari team-mate Alain Prost. At the back of the grid the Lola team just missed the grid for the second race running, this time with JJ Lehto. Mark Blundell again failed to make the cut, continuing the run of only one Ligier making the grid.

Race - Spain
Thierry Boutsen took the lead in the championship with an easy victory, helped by team-mate Alesi suffering an early engine failure. Nigel Mansell came second for the Dallara team and Gerhard Berger just held onto the last step on the podium in his McLaren, with Alain Prost less than a second behind in his Ferrari. Scott Goodyear had a solid drive an took advantage of the attrition to score Benettons first points of the year in fifth. The biggest celebrations of the day were reserved for the AGS garage though, as Eddie Irvine overtook Christian Danner two laps from the end to give AGS their first point in three years.

My feelings are pretty much 50-50 now...

Large reliability for Williams.

Large reliability for Arrows please

Large qualifying pace for Ligier.

Okay, let's just go with the largest possible qualifying upgrade for EuroBrun. We're too terrible for words right now.

To my surprise, it appears we actually still have money. So we'll take a Large Grip upgrade.

Large Power and Reliability for McLaren-Yamaha

Large Grip for Modena
