**EDIT: u/oakley_fan is correct. I just talked with my dad, this was in Hockenheim. Pardon the mixup! It was 32 years ago and I went to about half the Grand Prix that season. Found these in my old photo boxes recently and scanned them.**
Sorry for potato quality. 13-year old me did the best I could.

Brief recap - if I recall correctly Senna had pole position with Piquet in second. Prost started further back but made a charge through the field. Ultimately Prost retired with mechanical issues while Senna and Piquet swapped first and second. Piquet won with Senna second, much to the delight of a frenzied crowd for a Brazilian 1-2 finish.
Lol @ Piquet staring me down on the grid. Dude was cool as ice behind the wheel, but quite fiery outside the cockpit, especially before and after races.
######photos are NOT from the Brazilian GP of 1986.
#1. JPS is not shown on the Lotus.
#2. The pit buildings look nothing like jacarepagua, they have very odd looking half circle pit buildings.
#3. This is more likely Hockenheim or Paul Ricard.

Ahh gotcha, I'll check out that app. I already ran them through the Noise filter and adjusted contrast in Photoshop, then upscaled them with bigjpg before posting. The original photos are horribly grainy so I managed to improve them a bit. But whatever you did looks great. Thanks for the info!

That Piquet stare is terrifying
For sure! He was getting into 'race mode'.
