You're kidding! I only said that because I couldn't think of anything amusing and wasn't smart enough to think of four under par like the rest.

Nah. League was invented by a union of outside backs who were tired of standing around having nothing to do for 80 minutes and slightly worried after one of their number actually died of boredom. Was during Harlequins vs. Bristol in 1894, iirc.

Yeah, there was some conjecture as to which weekend Barrichello did actually break the record, but he has most certainly done so now.

Im not sure about that. I answered Barrichello but a bit of research shows that

Races Started
Barrichello= 255
Patrese= 256

Its only in races entered rather than races started that Barrichello leads.

I'm not sure where you got your information from Goughy (link?), but it's either wrong, or not updated. I was partially wrong in saying that he was now most certainly the outright leader, when in fact at the very least, he is on par with Patrese on 256 after Monaco, or at most 258 (depending on your source). Whatever the case though, on Sunday in Canada, Barrichello will have undoubtedly started the most races ever no matter who you source is.

The conjecture was to whether his 257th race would be in Turkey (which it was according to the Official F1 site) , Monaco & Canada btw.
