In versions less that 11.0, most of the HTTP:: command values are cached within the same iRule event, so they won't show the changed values. You can change the value, but the command itself will return the cached original. If you're on a version that is 11.0 or below there's a very good chance that your log statement is printing the original URI ("/brasil"), but that shouldn't affect the functionality that you're trying to produce. Otherwise, if the iRule isn't working as expected, regardless of the log statement, add some additional logging to see what is and isn't happening: 


when HTTP_REQUEST {
    log local0. "Incoming URI = [HTTP::uri]"
    if { [HTTP::uri] eq "/brasil" } {
        log local0. "Caught /brasil URI"
        HTTP::uri "/PPP"
        pool pool_xxxx
    }
}
