Mercedes have had Petronas as their title sponsors for over a decade in Formula One. However, there were reports emerging that the Silver Arrows might end their partnership with the Malaysian oil company and could strike a deal with Aramco instead.

But Petronas revealed that they had recently signed a new deal with the Brackley-based squad, hence crossing off the idea that Mercedes would take Aramco as their new title sponsor.

Petronas debunk the theory of them leaving as a title sponsor

The name “Petronas” has made itself seen countless times over the years. They are often seen on the car or on the team gear. Hence, it was quite a surprise to see reports stating they would leave.

As quoted by Motorsport.Total, Petronas said, “Petronas and Mercedes have been partners in a long-term cooperation since 2010, which is beneficial for both sides.Last year we renewed our partnership for another multi-year cycle and we are proud to continue to work together to achieve excellence.” (Translated via Google Translate)
