Giancarlo Fisichella will celebrate his 200th Grand Prix at Monaco next weekend.

The Formula One veteran, who switched to Force India from Renault for the 2008 season, is to mark the occasion with a special set of overalls and a '200'-logoed helmet.

"I still feel young, I still feel happy to work in F1, to be an F1 driver," the 35-year-old Roman said in a statement.

"The only problem is travelling around the world all the time! But apart from that, I still enjoy F1. I wouldn't still be here if I didn't," Fisichella added.

His tally of 200 races does not include the farcical US Grand Prix of 2005, when he was among the 14 Michelin runners who pulled out, or France 2002, when he crashed heavily in qualifying and did not start.
