Minardi sent two representatives, Pierluigi Martini and the only non-Italian at the event, Spaniard Luis Pérez-Sala.
These were the drivers that had driven for them in the regular season, after Martini replaced Adrian Campos mid-season.
EuroBrun had been represented by Oscar Larrauri and Stefano Modena during the season, but it was Fabrizio Barbazza, who had never driven in a Grand Prix, who drove the car at the Indoor Trophy.
BMS Scuderia Italia also sent along one of their Dallara cars, driven by regular driver Alex Caffi.
Larini was defeated again in the semis by Pérez-Sala, but Caffi pulled a surprise against Martini to prevent an all-Minardi final.
