And Yeah, I know I’m helping keep it alive…
Strange how I’ve already put Team Penske’s P2P
transgressions ito thoust proverbial rear view mirror. And not because I think
El Capitano’, nee roger Penske, Tim Cindric or Team Penske should be cut any
slack!
No, it’s just because it doesn’t present the
Open Wheel Racing series I far prefer these days in a very flattering light!
As somehow I missed the news over ‘Ol
superTex’, nee Anthony Joseph Foyt saying that Roger’s “Innocent”. Whilst Mikey
A’ (Andretti) isn’t so convinced…
Hmm, who
does Foyt have a Technical “Wink-Wink, Nudge-Nudge” Alliance with? Just Saying’
But it’s
Funny, because I keep waffling back ‘n forth over whether or not The Captain
knew anything about this? Since I get the impression that Roger’s removed
Himself from the Day-to-Day operations a long time ago? But then again,
somebody knew something! Since when ever has Penske been that sloppy?
But it
does make you wonder? If Penske, Cindric, Chevrolet and others knew, why would
they have “Outed” themselves during Sunday morning practice? Or was the
technical glitch in Race Control really not a glitch?
Meanwhile
Michael Andretti’s “take” upon the subject on His recent appearance on Keny
Wallace’s podcast is pretty forthright over how I’d Arse-sume many of the
current IndyCar team owners feel upon the subject.
As
Michael wasn’t shy about saying how none of the Penske drivers and Tim
Cindric’s “excuses” match-up, and He just wishes that Roger and Team Penske
would be more transparent. Which I think we All as loyal fans would also hope
for. Since Racer’s Marshall Pruett has been quick to point out how we the Fans,
i.e.; paying customers have never received an apology…
And
that’s before hearing that GM hired a third party lawyer to clear Chevrolet of
any wrongdoing. Which once again is somewhat dubious, since I believe that
Roger Penske owns Ilmor? The manufacturers of Chevrolet’s IndyCar race engines,
Oh Never Mind!
As why
does this whole sordid subject make me think of disgraced Tour de Farce winner
Lance Armstong, Eh?
As I
certainly feel zero empathy towards Josef Newgarden and His race victory being
rightfully taken away from Him! Whilst I like ScottyMac’, aka Scott mcLaughlin,
so I’ll give Him a pass. While
Y’all
have to wonder how come Will Power new it was illegal to use Push-to-Pass on race
starts and re-starts, Eh?
You make the Call!
