The Formula 1 racing car driver Rubens Barrichello has celebrated breaking a world record with a party in a motorhome.

Barrichello beat the current record for competing in the highest number of races for one driver on Saturday, making it 275.

The Brazillian celebrated with his team mates in Honda's motorhome at a party which was held in his honour.

He revealed that he does not plan to stop here and is now aiming for a new record of 300 races.

The racing driver is not the only sports star to use a motorhome for his races, with Lewis Hamilton having previously revealed that he uses his to relax in before a competition.

He has a private section in the McLaren motorhome, in which he has a Playstation, according to the Guardian.

Recently a German racing car driver has announced that he spent 250,000 euros on a motorhome in which to attend this summer's races.

Sebastian Vettel, who races for the Scuderia ToroRosso Formula 1 team, bought a Concorde Line 990 vehicle.
