The 1989 Formula One season was the second season of Aerond's Alfonso de Vinuesa career.
Just like 1988, the season began with a quartet (which then became a quintet) of consecutive Ayrton Senna Grand Prix victories. For Prost though, it was not more of the same: he was able to post only one race win all season long, and finished with exactly half of his teammate's points in a flaccid Championship defence that saw him sink to third in the Championship behind Williams' Thierry Boutsen. Apart from Senna, the only other driver to win more than once was Lotus-Honda's Satoru Nakajima: the Japanese driver scored victories at the French, Hungarian and Australian Grands Prix. Alfonso de Vinuesa struggled in his new drive at Brabham, where reliability woes were the norm. Only three times out of 16 did he see the chequered flag, the best of those results coming at the British Grand Prix where he scored two of Brabham's eventual four points for the season.
