Formula One: Barrichello aims to extend career
Said he is ‘talking to the whole paddock’ about extending his Formula One racing career.
YEONGAM:
Brazilian veteran Rubens Barrichello said he is ‘talking to the whole paddock’ about extending his Formula One racing career, already the longest in the sport’s history. Barrichello has started the most races in an unbroken career that began with Jordan in 1993. Last weekend, in Japan, he took part in his 318th Grand Prix, a record, and, fearing he may be released by Williams, said he is desperate to keep on driving. “I want to be racing,” he said. “I’m ready to talk about anything which will enable me to be here next year. I’m talking to the whole paddock.”
