Qualifying for the 1990 Portuguese Grand Prix resulted in a surprise as the two Ferraris were ahead of the two McLaren-Hondas with Nigel Mansell on pole from Alain Prost and Ayrton Senna ahead of Gerhard Berger.
The race was the 19th Portuguese Grand Prix and the seventh to be held at Estoril. It was scheduled to be held over 71 laps of the 4.35-kilometre (2.70 mi) circuit but was stopped after 61 laps, a race distance of 265.35 kilometres (164.88 mi), after an accident involving the Arrows of Alex Caffi and the Lola of Aguri Suzuki.
Nigel Mansell was leading when the race was stopped, thus taking his only victory of the season and his last for the Ferrari team.
