Bolsonaro calls for end to Petrobras sponsorship with McLaren
President Jair Bolsonaro wants the end of the bond between Petrobras and McLaren. A government envoy would have even visited the team's headquarters this week in England to settle the end of the Brazilian state's sponsorship contract of $ 782 million with the Formula One team.

As an immediate effect, the company's name would be removed from McLaren cars in the middle of the season of the most important category of motoring world.
