SHOP OFFICIAL ASTON MARTIN MERCHANDISE
Aston Martin re-entered Formula 1 in 2021 after the team was rebranded from Racing Point, which itself had previously been known as Force India. Backed by the investment of Lawrence Stroll and a growing partnership with Aramco, Aston Martin's goal is to become a championship-contending team in the near future. The team made notable progress in 2023, with consistent podium finishes and a surge in form thanks to strategic development and excellent race management. Aston Martin aims to continue its upward trajectory in 2024, building on the performance gains from the previous seasons. With strong financial backing, state-of-the-art facilities, and top engineering talent, Aston Martin is positioning itself as a serious competitor in the midfield battle, and perhaps even beyond.
