#4 Jaques Villeneuve - 11
Like Patrese, Jacques Villeneuve has eleven consecutive retirements to his name. The Canadian driver's misfortunes showed up during the 1999 Formula One season.
Driving for the BAR team for the first time, the former World Champion endured a horrible start to the season at Australia's Albert Park, where he was forced to retire due to a mechanical problem. His misfortunes continued for the next ten races until the race at Spa Francorchamps in Belgium. Two of those retirements were seen during the very first lap of the race itself.
The Canadian finished fifteenth at the 1999 Belgian Grand Prix after starting the race from the eleventh spot. With two more retirements before the final race of the season, Villeneuve holds another unfortunate statistic of twelve retirements during the 1999 Formula One season. He put zero points on the drivers' championship table that year.
