Keke Rosberg and Eddie Cheever joined him on the podium, as both Renaults retired once again. Yet, this was overshadowed by the death of one of Formula One's stars of the era during qualifying. Gilles Villeneuve, in heavy rain and trying to beat team mate Didier Pironi's sixth place time, struck the back of a slower car and crashed heavily, killed on impact with the fence. Ferrari withdrew Pironi's car in the aftermath, and would race with just one car for the next few races.
