Petronas. . .

PETRONAS, short for Petroleum Nasional Berhad, is the national petroleum corporation of Malaysia and is fully-owned by the Malaysian government.

The corporation, ranked among the largest 500 corporations of the world, has over 100 subsidiaries and associates, operating in 26 countries spread all over the world.

Their relationship with Foggy dates back to 1992 when Carl competed in the Malaysian championship for the Petronas Sprinta team.

Since then they have kept in touch with the four-times World Superbike champion until he retired from racing in 2000.

Then, when he indicated his desire to set up his own racing team, the Malaysian giants stepped forward with the offer of sponsorship and hence the Foggy Petronas Racing Team was formed.
