Flamengo

Petrobras' sponsorship for Flamengo is one of longest-lasting partnerships in Brazilian sport. The Lubrax name has been showcased on the red and black soccer shirts the Brazilian club, which has the most supporters in Brazil, has worn since 1984. Although common in European soccer clubs, sports sponsorship was something new to Brazil at that time.

In 1994, the back of the shirts displayed Petrobras' name. Another innovation was to extend the use of Lubrax and Petrobras names to uniforms, jackets and travel wear, and to all of the club's other professional and amateur sports. Two years later, the company's logo was also added to Flamengo's uniform.

In 2006, the novelties were the inclusion of the Petrobras Card brand on the shirt’s chest (the Lubrax brand was transferred to the sleeve) and, also, the Podium Gasoline brand now appears on the left sleeve.

The sponsorship represents the union of Flamengo perseverance and talent with Petrobras competence and tradition. Wherever Flamengo is, Petrobras is there too - in the bus, field, and in the Gávea sports facilities.
