I think Rubens will do it first (he is the closest...)but depends in his performances this year.

ahh i see hmmmm....

i think barichello has one more season in him, maybe two if hes not so successful.
Fisichella has lots more however, he has to perform if he wants to continue
coulthard i think is strongest contender, he is old but i think he is still in tip top condition and racing well, he could well do it!

i would like to know how far away are those 3 drivers from breaking the record! but from a guess i think barrachello or fisico will get it! this should be coultards last year anyway *i hope* ](*,)

Hopefully no one.

Patrese is the reason why I started following F1 and would hate it to see him lose this record.

For the statistics, Patrese started his F1 career in 1977 and ended in 1993 after 257 races where each championship used to be 16 races long.

Barrichello started in 1993 and has 235 starts
Couthard started in 1994 and has 215 starts
Fisichella started in 1996 and has 182 starts

Should Barrichello go on a further year, he will break's Patrese's record. I think Coulthard wil call it a day at the end of this year while Fisichella goes on a bit more. However, Fisichella has to compete in 3 more seasons apart from this one to break Patrese's record.

I'd like it to be Fisico but I doubt he will he'll probably make the decision to leave at the end of this season

dont worry he if he does retire, he can say he had a great time in his racing carrier! i think the only person who could beat it is barrachello... coultard should retire, hes getting old and slower.
