BMS Scuderia Italia, still using Dallara chassis, were represented for a second year by JJ Lehto, who had driven in 1991 alongside Emanuele Pirro.
Three time champions Minardi had two cars, one driven by defending champion Gianni Morbidelli, even though he had been replaced by Roberto Moreno during the season, the other a 1990 spec car driven by test driver Marco Apicella.
Finally, Coloni were represented by test driver Antonio Tamburini, who would never enter a Grand Prix.
Another surprise saw the inexperienced Antonio Tamburini defeat defending champion Gianni Morbidelli.
The final was then a rematch of the quarter-final matchup between Herbert and Tarquini, and the Italian won again, meaning that he was the first driver to win the tournament in a car other than a Minardi.
