💨 Abstract

This article discusses the potential creation of an independent governing body for IndyCar, following a cheating scandal involving Team Penske ahead of the Indianapolis 500. Team Penske, owned by Roger Penske, was found to have altered illegal parts on two cars, including the winning car from the previous year. Rival teams have accused Penske of receiving preferential treatment, prompting IndyCar president Doug Boles to consider an independent officiating entity to ensure fairness.
