| Lavazza March entered Stuch with car #10 and Lombardi with car #29, but Stuck was not present at the event and Lombardi used #10. In the initial entry list, Wunderink was assigned with #30 and Wilson Fittipaldi #32 (probably a mistake, as Fittipaldi raced all season with #30, and in the end Wunderink entry never materialized). | |||||||
