Aston Martin has revealed the title partners who will back its return to Formula One as a works team for the first time in over 60 years, joining forces with American IT firm Cognizant ahead of the start of the 2021 season.
The newly-christened Aston Martin Cognizant Formula One Team will reveal its new livery in February, ahead of the return of an Aston Martin works team to the Formula One grid for the first time since 1960.
It signals the end of Austrian company BWT's title sponsorship of the Silverstone squad under the previous guise as Racing Point, which saw the cars painted lurid pink. British Racing Green is expected to be the colour on drivers Sebastian Vettel and Lance Stroll's cars this season.
"The return of Aston Martin to Formula One after more than 60 years away is a landmark moment," said Aston Martin team owner Lawrence Stroll. "I'm hugely proud that we can start this new chapter with the support of Cognizant… I can't think of a more suitable or valuable partner to work with us as we strive to make Aston Martin one of the greatest teams in the sport."
