This record number of wins in a season was not equalled until Alain Prost won seven races in 1984 driving a McLaren MP4/2, and it was not beaten until 1988 when Ayrton Senna won eight races in the McLaren MP4/4 (his teammate Prost again won seven races in 1988).
Este récord de número de vitorias nunha tempada non foi igualado ata que Alain Prost gañou sete carreiras en 1984 pilotando un McLaren MP4 / 2, e non foi batido ata 1988 cando Ayrton Senna gañou oito carreiras no McLaren MP4/4 (ironicamente o seu compañeiro de equipo Prost volveu gañar sete carreiras en 1988).
