Williams F1 enjoys tremendous support in Venezuela, not least because of Maldonado whose win at the Spanish Grand Prix this season has seen him become a national icon in his home country.

Pastor will be joined by Team Principal Sir Frank Williams for a series of exciting events in the country’s capital, Caracus, including Pastor driving his Formula One car around the capital city’s most renowned national monument, Los Proceres.
