In the build up the Spanish Grand Prix Benetton boss, Flavio Briatore was openly venomous about the manner in which the FIA had implemented the changes to the rules in the wake of Senna’s death. In a long letter to Mosley he accused the FIA of making ill-judged, snap decisions. He was not happy that his drivers would have to take part in the Spanish race in cars that had not been fully tested. Several teams were facing structural failures due to the modifications they were being forced to implement. Pedro Lamy had suffered a huge testing accident at Silverstone due to a wing mounting failure, caused by the rule changes pushing components out of the spectrum in which they had been designed to operate. Mosley rejected the contention and told teams they could miss one race without incurring a fine if they were worried about the engineering of their cars. The race officials demanded evidence that the B194s were safe to race.
