As𒅌ton Martin Formula 1 team owner Lawrence Stroll ꦕbelieves his side has what it takes to become world champions.

The rebranded Racing Point outfit will bring the iconic British car brand name Aston Martin back to the F1 grid this year, with an announcement on Thursday confirming the team has secured a multi-year deal with American꧃ IT consulting company Cognizant ༒to become its new title sponsor.

Under its previous Racing Point guise, the Silversꦍtone-based squad finished fourth in the 2020 constructors’ championship and claimed its first victory at the Sakhir Grand Prix.

And Stroll wants more podiums and victories to follow in 2021 and beꦓyond as he set the Aston Martin team the target of establishing itself as a world-championship winning outfit in the coming years.

"My aim with this, like the other 💎businesses I've owned, is to win," Stroll told .

"F1 is a process that takes years to be successful; it is not an over🥀night thing, but no business is built overnight.

"This will be the same. I wan✤t to continue where we finished last year, only stronger.

"We had several podiums, we had a win. I'd like this year to have several more podiums and another win or two - step by 𝔍step fighting for more and more wins.”

Stroll revealed he discussed the prospect of transforming Aston Martin into a championship-winning side with team principal Otmar Szafnauer and technical director Andrew Green𒁃.

"I said: 'We have the new rules coming in for 2022, we are here to win, it's why I🐻ꦅ'm here, it's why we're all here, but I have the ability to give us the resources we need to win," he added.

"What would we do if anything differently in order to become world champions?’ And Andy said: 'My initial answer is I don't think I would change a wh🍬ole lot.’"

Stroll pointed to the sign𒅌ing of four-time world champion Sebastian Vettel as underlining the team’s ambition, adding he believes the German will get back to his best after a difficult few seasons and help Aston Martin succeed in making the next step.

"Se🌞bastian had a very challenging year last year," he said.

"All of us would find it challenging that you lose your job before the season starts. T♒𓂃hat's mentally very difficult, and you know how mental a game F1 is for drivers.

"He had a car he found tricky to ౠdrive that didn't suit his driving style. We've seen t𒊎hat before in his last year at Red Bull [in 2014].

"But he's a four-time world champion. I don't think he forgot how to drive in one year. He has a work ethic that is known as second to none in the paddock in terms of how hard he w𓂃orks.

"One of the ways we are going to be world cham෴pions is to get my guys to think and act like world champions. And how you do that is bring a four-time world champion into the team.

"He is going to take the team in a direction of leading us to where ꦯultimately we want to be.

"I am not conc🍃erned," Stroll added. "I know Sebastian well, and I have 100% confidence and belief he will do a fantastic job with🍰 us. He is more motivated than he has ever been."
