Race interrupted because of an accident on the first lap, involving the cars of Villeneuve, Jarier, Daly, Piquet, Andretti, Fittipaldi, Rosberg and Mass. Villeneuve, Piquet, Andretti, Fittipaldi and Mass used spare cars on the restart, Rosberg used Emerson’s car that was able to be repaired (although not in time, as Rosberg had to restart from the pits) and Jarier, as team leader, used Thackwell’s car, who along with Daly did not start due to lack of available cars. The race was restarted with its original distance. Didier Pironi finished first, but had a 1 min penalty for jumping the start.
