Asked about suggestions he may be labelled a pay driver owing to his familys wealth, the Canadian was defiant and insisted he has earned his F1 chance.Everyone has their own opinion, I cant change that, he said. I come from money, Im not going to deny that, but I believe Ive earned my shot in F1 because Ive won every championship that Ive competed in.Now the FIA have put in superlicence [points] for just that reason, so people cant just buy their way into F1. You actually have to prove yourself and win in the junior categories. Williams also moved to deny the decision to hand Stroll a race seat was decided by the money he could bring to the team. The Canadians father was behind the rise of the Tommy Hilfiger brand in the 1990s.Id like to make it very clear that Williams has been a team over the past few years that has made it very clear, and a statement of intent, that we would not allow financial considerations to influence over driver choice, said Williams. That has absolutely been the case this year.Money doesnt drive performance in the cockpit - you either have performance or you dont. Lance has proved he has got that talent.

I feel we still have a lot to achieve together, we havent yet achieved what we could, said the Finn.I currently have a stat which I have the most points scored in F1 without a win, which I hate, and so it would be nice to change that. That is our target together and it would be very special to have my first win with Williams. Its like a family home, so it was a very natural decision for me to continue.
