Team ATS continued to use the HGS1, modified by Don Halliday and now designated as the D5, for the 1982 Formula One season. Manfred Winkelhock joined the team as a replacement for Borgudd and Eliseo Salazar was the second driver. The pair started the season with promise, finishing 9th and 10th in South Africa and Winkelhock then finished fifth at the Brazilian race for two points. Salazar finished fifth at Imola although this race saw a reduced field of entrants due to a boycott by most of the FOCA aligned teams.
