1982 Brazilian Grand Prix

The 1982 Brazilian Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held at Jacarepaguá on March 21, 1982. It was the second round of the 1982 Formula One season.

Disqualifications
Nelson Piquet finished first and Keke Rosberg finished second, but were disqualified after the cars were found to be underweight. As a result, the FOCA teams boycotted San Marino GP after two races. The problem was with a 7 gal "ballast water tank", ostensibly used to cool the brakes. This would gradually empty during the race and then be replenished at the end so as to pass post-race scrutineering. The FIA Appeals Tribunal upheld the disqualification seven weeks later and these tanks were permanently banned.
