Andrea Moda owner Andrea Sassetti believed that he did not have to pay the $100,000 fee for new teams, as he had purchased an existing team (Footwork and Fondmetal had not had to pay this fee when they purchased Arrows and Osella respectively the previous year), but officials decided that he had purchased Coloni's cars but not its entry, leading to the exclusion.
O propietario de Andrea Moda, Andrea Sassetti, cría que non tiña que pagar a tarifa de 100.000 $ para equipos novos, xa que comprara un equipo existente (Footwork e Fondmetal non tiveran que pagar esta tarifa cando compraron Arrows e Osella respectivamente o ano anterior), pero os comisarios decidiron que comprara os coches de Coloni pero non a súa entrada, o que levou á exclusión.
