Pastor Maldonado looks to thrive in Italian Grand Prix

Pastor Maldonado has revealed that he is aiming to continue his good run of form at the Italian Grand Prix this weekend.

The 26-year-old Williams driver, who clinched his first point of the season in Belgium two weeks ago, is hopeful that he can make an impact at Monza on Sunday.

"It is a wonderful track, especially because it is so quick, one of the quickest of the year," ESPN quotes Maldonado as saying.

"It is a low-downforce circuit so you need a good aero balance for that. As we showed at Spa-Francorchamps, our car is working well on these types of tracks so I hope to be in the points again this weekend.

"Monza is a very special circuit for me and I have great memories of winning there in Formula Renault 3.5 in 2006."

The Venezuelan driver, who won the 2010 GP2 championship, made his Formula 1 debut earlier this year.
