May 7 (GMM) Rubens Barrichello will race a special '257' car livery and helmet design in Turkey this weekend, as his team Honda helps him mark his record-breaking 257th grand prix.



The Japanese team has already begun celebrating the 35-year-old Brazilian's forthcoming feat, with the 'Rubens Barrichello 257 Golf Tournament' at Barcelona following the recent Spanish grand prix, attended by the man who has held the previous record since 1993, Riccardo Patrese.



Meanwhile, we understand that many of Barrichello's friends and family will be in attendance at Istanbul Park this weekend.
