had a dramatic accident at the dangerous final corner, but the world champion was unhurt. Riccardo Patrese
took his second consecutive pole position from team-mate Nigel Mansell, Ayrton Senna, Jean Alesi, Gerhard Berger, Nelson Piquet, Alain Prost, Stefano Modena, Roberto Moreno, and a surprising Olivier Grouillard in his Fondmetal, the first time the team had qualified for a race this season. At the start Patrese made a poor start and dropped to fourth behind Mansell, Alesi, and Senna. Senna quickly disposed of Alesi and set off after Mansell. Meanwhile Berger's race ended prematurely once again as his engine exploded on lap 5, the resulting oil causing Pierluigi Martini to spin off in his Minardi. Patrese started his recovery drive by out-braking Senna into turn 1 to take second place and set off after Mansell, the Williams-Renault package clearly having distinguished itself over the bumps of the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez. On Lap 15 Patrese passed Mansell for the lead and the Englishman started to drop back due to concerns of overheating, first Alesi and then Senna attempted to pass him but to no avail. Prost dropped out on lap 16 with alternator problems and was followed on the sidelines by team-mate Alesi on lap 42, who retired with clutch failure. Piquet suffered a broken wheel bearing on lap 44 and retired and Benetton team compounded their issues with a botched pit stop for Moreno. Patrese could not be touched and stormed home to record both his and Williams' first win of the season. Mansell was second a long way ahead of third placed Senna. De Cesaris scored more points for the impressive Jordan 191
with a fourth placed finish, the Italian having to push his car over the line, with Moreno recovering to fifth (thanks in part to Bertrand Gachot spinning off) and Éric Bernard sixth for Larrousse
, scoring the last Formula One points by a chassis manufactured by Lola Cars as of 2010. De Cesaris was initially disqualified for pushing his car over the line, but was then reinstated.
