    Yes. And it wasn't due to the turbos being unreliable but that the NA cars were just fast on that particular day. And Piquet had a puncture from the lead 9 laps to go.

    The turbos were reliable already in 1982 (at least the Ferrari was) but that season was a freak one in pretty much every way.
