Peugeot used this home race to show off their new second evolution of the 905, running it for a few laps in practice before it was withdrawn. Peugeot instead ran a third 905 Evo 1B for the home crowd in the race. With the demise of the SWC, the 905 Evo 2 was never raced in competition. Euro Racing withdrew from the event following scrutineering after the arrest of team owner Charles Zwolsman.
