\nLewis Hamilton became the third most experienced driver in Formula 1 history after completing his 323rd race start at the 2023 Dutch Grand Prix.
It came just 13 months after the seven-time world champion started his 300th race, which in turn made him the second driver on the current F1 grid to reach such a landmark. Fernando Alonso is the other, having driven his 300th race in 2018.
\nBut, it is becoming more and more of a trend for modern day F1 drivers to complete a higher number of race starts than those from the championship\u2019s early days. Due to the threat of death or serious injury, combined with smaller world championship calendars, F1 careers used to be shorter, though drivers did also contest non-championship events not included in these numbers.
\nDouble world champion Graham Hill held the record for more than a decade, before Jacques Laffite matched his tally of 176 at the 1986 British GP. Sadly, Laffite was involved in a startline crash at Brands Hatch that ended his F1 career.
\nRiccardo Patrese subsequently moved the record to 256, but there are now nine drivers who have surpassed that number. So, here are the 10 drivers with the most race starts in F1 history.
\n1. Fernando Alonso

\nFernando Alonso, Aston Martin F1 Team
\nStarts: 377
Years: 2001, 2003-18, 2021-present
Wins: 32
Poles: 22
Fastest laps: 24
Titles: 2 (2005-06)
Fernando Alonso takes the title for most race starts, having taken the crown from Kimi Raikkonen at the 2022 Singapore Grand Prix.
\nOf all the drivers on this list, Alonso probably has a record that most poorly reflects his impressive performances over two decades. Seeing as he is a double F1 champion and sits seventh in the all-time winners list, that\u2019s saying something.
\nAfter starring with the minnow Minardi squad in his rookie F1 season in 2001, Alonso took his first victory at the 2003 Hungarian GP with Renault, following a year as test driver.
\nA brilliant campaign brought him the 2005 title and he successfully defended his crown in 2006 despite a challenge from a revitalised Michael Schumacher.
\nAlonso joined McLaren for 2007. The car was quick but so was precocious rookie Hamilton and the intra-team battle helped Raikkonen beat both to the crown. Alonso, feeling unsupported, left to join Renault and won twice in 2008.
\nAlonso moved to Ferrari for 2010 and was arguably at his best while at the famous Italian team. Despite mediocre machinery, Alonso came close to taking the crown in both 2010 and 2012, but Ferrari started the turbo-hybrid era badly and Alonso left after a disappointing 2014.
\nThe McLaren-Honda combination proved disastrous and Alonso wasted four seasons before taking a break from F1. He won the Le Mans 24 Hours twice and added the World Endurance crown to his CV, then returned in 2021 with Alpine. His return with the French team netted a single podium - third place in the 2021 Qatar Grand Prix - which wasn't enough to keep him for 2023 as he made a shock move to Aston Martin. Although he is yet to be rewarded with a victory at the Silverstone-based team, the move has so far proved to be a success after eight podiums in his first season.

After an incredibly short junior single-seater career, Raikkonen graduated to F1 with Sauber at the age of 21 in 2001. He impressed enough to be snapped up by McLaren for 2002 and stayed at the Woking-based squad for five seasons.
\nHis first win came in the 2003 Malaysian GP and Raikkonen racked up nine F1 victories at McLaren. He came close to winning the 2005 title but was thwarted by unreliability and moved to Ferrari after a disappointing 2006 campaign.
\nPLUS: McLaren\u2019s fastest failure
\nRaikkonen won on his Ferrari debut in the 2007 Australian GP and snatched the drivers\u2019 crown at the finale following a dramatic fight with McLaren drivers Hamilton and Alonso.
\nThereafter Felipe Massa started to get the upper hand at Ferrari, but Raikkonen stepped up after the Brazilian\u2019s accident in qualifying for the 2009 Hungarian GP. He won the Belgian GP before being released from his contract at the end of the season.
\n\nRaikkonen tried rallying and NASCAR before returning to F1 with Lotus. He won the 2012 Abu Dhabi GP on his way to third in the standings and won the following year\u2019s Australian GP.
\nHe rejoined Ferrari for 2014, but largely had to play second fiddle, first to Alonso and then Vettel. Raikkonen took his 21st and final F1 victory in the 2018 United States GP before closing out his career with three seasons at Sauber-run Alfa Romeo.

\nStarts: 332
Years: 2007-present
Wins: 103
Poles: 104
Fastest laps: 65
Titles: 7 (2008, 2014-15, 2017-20)
Seven world titles, 103 wins and 104 poles. The starts and fastest laps records are two of the few F1 benchmarks Hamilton hasn\u2019t matched or beaten in a remarkable career.
Hamilton arrived in F1 in 2007 with a string of junior category titles to his name and immediately gave double world champion McLaren team-mate Alonso some headaches. There were errors, notably in the Chinese GP pitlane, but his speed was never in doubt.
\nHaving narrowly missed out on the title in his rookie year, Hamilton pipped Ferrari\u2019s Massa in 2008. McLaren\u2019s car for the 2009 rule changes was not a good one, but team and driver worked to make it a winner before the end of the season.
\nHamilton and McLaren were sporadically quick across 2010-12 but weren\u2019t able to topple the Vettel-Red Bull combination and the Briton left the team after some frustrating unreliability in 2012 and an approach from Mercedes.
\nThe Silver Arrows became the dominant force as the turbo-hybrid rules arrived in 2014, Hamilton taking the 2014 and 2015 titles. He normally had an edge over team-mate Nico Rosberg but a combination of poor starts and car troubles for Hamilton helped the German snatch the 2016 crown.
\nFollowing Rosberg\u2019s retirement and the arrival of Valtteri Bottas, Hamilton arguably reached his peak across 2017-18, taking two more titles despite strong Ferrari challenges. The successes continued in brilliant Mercedes machinery and in 2020 Hamilton matched Schumacher\u2019s record of seven world titles.
\nRule tweaks hindered Mercedes for 2021 and Red Bull had a slight advantage, but Hamilton still became the first driver to score 100 world championship GP wins in Russia. Despite clashes with main rival Max Verstappen, Hamilton kept himself in title contention and would have taken a surprise crown had it not been for the controversial late safety car and restart calls in the Abu Dhabi finale.
\nMercedes\u2019 ground-effects car for 2022 proved flawed and George Russell\u2019s arrival in the other car brought added pressure, but Hamilton\u2019s pole position at the 2023 Hungarian GP proves he still has something in his locker when opportunities arise.

Barrichello started his F1 career with Jordan and stayed with the team for four seasons. Often impressive in wet conditions, Barrichello took his first F1 pole in a rain-affected session at Spa in 1994, then scored a brilliant second place in the soaking 1997 Monaco GP driving for Stewart.
\nThe Brazilian joined Ferrari for 2000 alongside Schumacher and finally scored his first F1 victory on his 123rd start, coming from 18th on the grid to win the German GP.
Barrichello proved a fine team player alongside Schumacher, contributing to five consecutive constructors\u2019 titles. Sometimes close enough to challenge his team leader, Barrichello was occasionally asked to move aside for Schumacher, most infamously at the 2002 Austrian GP.
\nReplaced by Massa for 2006, Barrichello joined Honda for 2006. He endured a difficult three years alongside Jenson Button and the team hit financial issues in 2008 when Honda decided to pull out of F1.
\nResurrected as Brawn, the team had the best car at the start of 2009, but it was Button who made the most of it. Red Bull came on strong as the campaign progressed, leaving Barrichello to take two wins and third in the standings as Button took the title.
\nAfter two years at Williams in the midfield, Barrichello retired from F1 at the end of 2011 having made a then-record 322 starts.

Fastest laps: 77
Titles: 7 (1994-95, 2000-04)
One of motorsport\u2019s legends, Schumacher famously made his F1 debut for Jordan at the 1991 Belgian GP. He was immediately signed by Benetton, took his first F1 win at Spa in 1992 and led the team as it became a championship contender from 1994.
\nRarely far from on-track controversy, Schumacher took the 1994 crown thanks to a dubious clash with rival Damon Hill in Adelaide as F1 recovered from the death of Ayrton Senna. Schumacher underlined his status as the new benchmark with a brilliant campaign to defend his title in 1995.
\nSchumacher moved to Ferrari for 1996, then in a period of rebuilding following one of its fallow periods. The German scored some of his best wins over the next three years but it wasn\u2019t until 2000 \u2013 and after missing some of the 1999 season due to injuries sustained in a Silverstone crash \u2013 that he took his third championship success, Ferrari\u2019s first drivers\u2019 title since 1979.
\nThereafter the floodgates opened and Schumacher reeled off another four crowns, 2002 and 2004 being among the most dominant seasons in F1 history. A rule change and the rise of Alonso at Renault finally ended the run in 2005, but Schumacher bounced back to narrowly lose the 2006 title to the Spaniard before retiring.
\nAfter three years away from the sport (and a motorbike accident), Schumacher returned with Mercedes in 2010. There were flashes of his old self, most notably topping qualifying for the 2012 Monaco GP, but he was no longer the force he had been and Schumacher retired for good after three seasons having not added to his then-record 91 GP victories.

Button arrived in F1 with Williams following just two successful seasons on the single-seater ladder. He impressed in 2000 but lost his seat to Indycar star Juan Pablo Montoya and joined Benetton.
\nThe inexperienced Button struggled alongside Giancarlo Fisichella in 2001 but improved in 2002 and then joined BAR. He comfortably saw off team-mate and 1997 world champion Jacques Villeneuve in 2003 before starring the following year.
\nButton was one of the standouts of the season on his way to third in the points, but Ferrari domination meant a first F1 win remained elusive.
\nPLUS: The best F1 cars never to win
\nButton\u2019s maiden success finally came in the 2006 Hungarian GP thanks to a brilliant drive in tricky conditions from 14th on the grid. But Honda\u2019s competitiveness fell back after that and Button\u2019s F1 career looked over when Honda withdrew at the end of 2008.
\nRoss Brawn helped save the team and the double-diffuser BGP 001 design was the car to have early in 2009. Button used it to win six of the first seven races and held on to take the title.
\nButton then joined Hamilton at McLaren, taking eight victories between 2010 and 2012. He also scored more points than Hamilton during the same period, largely thanks to arguably Button\u2019s finest F1 campaign in 2011 that yielded second in the championship.
\nButton led McLaren after Hamilton\u2019s move to Mercedes, but the team was on a downward path and there would be no more wins. He beat team-mate Alonso in the points in 2015 but the Spaniard normally had the upper hand the following year and Button made his final F1 start \u2013 subbing for an Indianapolis 500-bound Alonso \u2013 at the 2017 Monaco GP.

Points on his F1 debut with BMW in 2007 heralded Vettel\u2019s F1 arrival and he was soon starring for Toro Rosso. He took the team\u2019s first F1 victory in the wet 2008 Italian GP and earned a graduation to the \u2018senior\u2019 Red Bull team for the following year.
\nThe RB5 was a championship contender in 2009. A few errors and a fine start by Brawn kept the titles out of Red Bull\u2019s reach but Vettel took four wins on his way to the runner-up spot behind Button.
Vettel was part of a four-way title fight in 2010 and wins in the final rounds in Brazil and Abu Dhabi, combined with poor strategy for team-mate Mark Webber and Ferrari rival Alonso, brought him his first F1 crown.
\nThere was no stopping Vettel and Red Bull in 2011 and 2013, but 2012 was closer. Vettel survived a first-lap clash in the Brazilian GP finale to pip Alonso to the title by four points.
\nVettel didn\u2019t like the first Red Bull of the turbo-hybrid era and struggled alongside new team-mate Daniel Ricciardo. He was only fifth in the standings and scored no wins before heading to Ferrari.
\nThe switch rejuvenated Vettel and he took three victories on his way to best-of-the-rest in the championship behind Hamilton and Rosberg. The following year\u2019s car was less competitive but the switch to wider, faster cars helped Ferrari challenge Mercedes.
\nVettel battled for the title in 2017 and 2018 but made mistakes and usually lost out in wheel-to-wheel fights with Hamilton. Vettel was twice runner-up but thereafter the balance of power at Ferrari shifted as rising star Charles Leclerc replaced Raikkonen for 2019.
\nLeclerc soon stamped his authority in the team and, following a disappointing 2020, Vettel headed to Aston Martin. Once again, the change seemed to help the likeable and outspoken German, who comfortably led the line over team-mate Lance Stroll. He retired from Formula 1 at the end of the 2022 season, just race shy of 300.

Either side of a year as a Ferrari test driver, the sometimes erratic Massa showed potential at Sauber in 2002 and 2004-05. He really started to mature alongside Schumacher at Ferrari in 2006, when he scored his first two F1 wins, in Turkey and his native Brazil.
\nHe helped team-mate Raikkonen to the 2007 crown after misfortune curtailed his own aspirations, but Massa hit top form the following year to lead Ferrari\u2019s attack. Thanks to a Singapore GP pitstop problem and Hamilton only taking the fifth place he needed in the closing yards of the Brazilian GP finale, Massa could count himself unfortunate not to have been the 2008 world champion.
\nMassa still had the upper hand over Raikkonen when his 2009 Hungarian GP qualifying crash ended his season. He returned for 2010 but was rarely a match for Alonso, and was asked to move aside for his new team-mate during the 2010 German GP.
Massa moved to Williams for 2014, just as the famous team got a boost with Mercedes turbo-hybrid power. Team-mate Bottas was marginally the quicker, but it was Massa who took pole for the Austrian GP and came within 2.6 seconds of winning the Abu Dhabi GP.
\nAfter retiring from F1 at the end of 2016, Massa was called back by Williams to replace Mercedes-bound Bottas following Rosberg\u2019s shock retirement. Williams had slipped back a little, but Massa outscored rookie team-mate Stroll before retiring from F1 for good.
\n9. Sergio Perez

Perez became the first Mexican F1 driver in 30 years after finishing second to Pastor Maldonado in the 2010 GP2 championship. Perez\u2019s debut came with Sauber, but his first race ended in disqualification due to a technical infringement on the car.
\nIt came as a big disappointment for Perez, as he initially finished seventh. But it proved to not be his only shot at points, as Perez would later finish inside the top 10 on five occasions that season. He stepped it up for his second campaign, scoring three podiums and beating team-mate Kamui Kobayashi in the championship.
\nThat earned him a move to McLaren for 2013 to replace Hamilton, but that proved difficult. The MP4-28 was not as competitive as hoped and team-mate Button comfortably beat Perez in the championship. Perez was replaced by Kevin Magnussen for 2014.
\nYet it proved to be the making of Perez. He joined Force India, where he firmly established himself as an F1 driver with his seven years there. Perez scored seven podiums and prevented Force India from being liquidating in 2018 as he helped place the team in administration.
\nThey were later bought by Lawrence Stroll, who renamed Force India as Racing Point. However, Perez was not part of Stroll\u2019s long-term vision as the team owner signed Vettel for the 2021 season to partner his son Lance.
\nPerez\u2019s final season with Racing Point was arguably his best, though, as he eventually became a race winner at the 2020 Sakhir GP. It was a mighty drive from him as he started fifth but ended up last on the opening lap after a spin, yet Perez recovered brilliantly to win on his 190th grand prix start, which also set the record for the most races before a victory.
\nPerez finishing fourth in the 2020 standings \u2013 seven places above Stroll \u2013 might not have been enough for Racing Point but it was for Red Bull, who signed Perez for the following season.
His first victory with Red Bull came after six grands prix, at the Azerbaijan GP, before he finished fourth again in the standings while team-mate Verstappen won a maiden championship. Perez then achieved a career-high of third in the 2022 F1 standings after two victories that year. He won two more races the following campaign, but 2023 was largely disappointing for Perez with Verstappen over 200 points ahead in the standings.
\n10. Riccardo Patrese

Patrese enjoyed a long and successful career in the series, which led to him temporarily holding the F1 race starts record. However, when he scored just one point in his debut season with Shadow Patrese\u2019s F1 career did not get the best of starts.
\nHe later moved to Arrows for the next four years and big unreliability problems stopped things from drastically improving, as Patrese suffered more DNFs than point finishes in that time. But, there were times where he was able to shine, as shown by four podium finishes and coming ninth in the 1980 standings.
\nPatrese later joined Brabham and in 1982, his first year with the team, the Italian finally became a race winner. It came in surprising circumstances as Patrese took the race lead with just three laps remaining when Alain Prost crashed into the barriers at Monaco \u2013 and after he had apparently spun away his chances.
\nHe won again the following year, this time in South Africa, while team-mate Nelson Piquet clinched the drivers\u2019 title. Patrese moved to Alfa Romeo for 1984, but his two years with the team proved disappointing. The highest he achieved was 13th in the championship after retiring in 22 of his 32 races with them, although Patrese did stand on the podium at Monza.
\nPatrese then returned to have another two years at Brabham before joining Williams for 1988 to continue a seasoned F1 career. The next five years proved to be his best, as Patrese finished third in the championship twice and second in 1992 with the dominant FW14B.

\nHaving won four GPs for Williams, Patrese joined Benetton for his final campaign but was outperformed by his younger team-mate Schumacher. Patrese finished fifth in the standings, with his 256th and final race start coming at the 1993 Australian GP.
