Fresh and recharged after the summer break, Fernando Alonso says it is important that Ferrari keep up the positive momentum they gained in the two GPs prior to the summer break.

Speaking on his blog, he said, "I have a good feeling following on from the positive results obtained in Germany and Hungary."

"As the saying goes, we have to keep the momentum and that should be our aim in Spa, to ensure we carry on the way we started just before the holidays."

"The Hockenheim and Budapest results were important not just in terms of the classification in both championships, but also for the confidence it has given us. We have to keep pushing on this way."

He said, he wants to stay calm and focussed on the upcoming races,

"I really want to get back on track, but in a positive sense, without any feeling of anxiety, but in a very calm way. I am happy that the return to racing means going to two particularly special venues which host the Belgian and Italian Grands Prix."

He spoke about the appeal of the Belgian track and how special Monza will be this year for him.

"The Belgian track is possibly the most appealing of the entire season, while Monza will be something special for me, given that it will be my race debut as a Ferrari driver in front of the Italian crowd, in addition to the circuit itself having played such an important role in the history of motor sport."
