  1. Dissension will destroy this series! I agree with Michael Andretti though….this series is spectacular on the track….its really an international series with the drivers and its reach should be more global. Why not race in Australia, New Zealand, Brazil, Mexico and Japan?? They need more races and seem to want to do more ovals….ok but you have international drivers, and an international audience in waiting!! Indycar, “Go for it”!

  2. Being part of the Indianapolis area, we are no doubt more in tune with whatever is going on with IndyCar. Picture a more distant sports fan in the central area of the country, do they really “care” about IndyCar, outside of say the Indianapolis 500? This series has a problem, and it isn’t Roger Penske.

  3. The article offers a specious argument. The achievements of his team proves nothing about his stewardship of the series. The article offers a specious argument. Perhaps Michael is right and Roger is spending too much effort on his team and not enough on the series.
