Outright victory is what Valtteri Bottas is targeting at each race this year following his maiden Grand Prix win in Russia two weeks ago.
The Finn, who replaced retired world champion Nico Rosberg last winter, is looking to prevail once again at the Circuit de Catalunya this weekend.
"It would be stupid not to go for the win - that is going to be the only goal in every race," Bottas told BBC's Radio 5 live.
"It is always possible and what is so exciting this year is going to every race I know there is an opportunity for the race win."
The Mercedes driver admitted that his triumph in Sochi has delivered an extra dose of confidence which he will now attempt to capitalize on.
"It does make a difference and it is always a confidence boost when you have a good result and many times you can carry on that momentum," he said.
"I feel the main momentum at the moment is how I have been able to improve every single qualifying and race, and I want to keep that, improving all the time."
The job of winning at Mercedes entails beating the man on the other side of the Silver Arrows garage, and for Bottas that means getting the upper hand over one Lewis Hamitlon, a monumental task.
But the 27-year-old says he's just keeping his head down and looking after his own affairs.
"The main thing for me is to keep doing what I'm doing and focus on my own thing," he said.
"You need to believe in yourself and know you can be at a competitive level but the main thing is really just keep going and work hard and focus on your own job.
"And my job is to drive the car as quickly as possible. There are many details that go into that but that doesn't change whatever the situation is, whoever is the team-mate."
