Tony George, grandson of Tony Hulman who bought the track in 1945, approached Penske about a deal before the season-ending race in California and worked it all out in six weeks. George was emotional giving up the 110-year-old race track, but felt it was time.
I am personally a huge Formula 1 fan but I do follow the IndyCar Series as well. IndyCar has such a long history and I'm glad to see it going to someone who equally has been such a integral part of it. Roger Penske is a huge race fan first and foremost, so I think they are leaving it in good hands.
Would be interesting to see what an Indy C8 Special Edition pace car may look like! Perhaps we may get a limited special edition Color?
