As it was the German Grand Prix (and that the team still only had 1 new car built) Tyrrell team boss Ken Tyrrell gave his German driver Stefan Bellof use of the Renault powered Tyrrell 014 for the weekend instead of the car's usual driver Martin Brundle who was given Bellof's Cosworth powered 012 to drive.
Como era o Gran Premio de Alemaña (e o equipo só tiña 1 coche novo construído) o xefe do equipo Tyrrell, Ken Tyrrell deu este coche o Tyrrell 014 con motor Renault a seu piloto alemán Stefan Bellof para o fin de semana en lugar do piloto habitual do vehículo Martin Brundle que pilotou o 012 con motor Cosworth.
