Possibly due to problems sourcing the original image, home versions of Super Monaco GP use different (albeit similar) backgrounds. The Mega Drive version breaks ranks by featuring a (newer) Ferrari, while the others stick with McLarens. The Commodore 64 version of the game lacks a title screen, while the ZX Spectrum lacks a background.

The arcade version makes no attempt to disguise the fact that the car is borrowed from the 1988 Formula 1 season, showing the number 11 McLaren MP4/4 driven by Alain Prost. It is likely from the 1988 Australian Grand Prix, due to the fact Prost won that race, and the clipped advertisement for Foster's, which was advertised heavily at the event.

The home computer versions use a newer model of McLaren, but like the Mega Drive, make modifications to remove obvious branding and advertising.
