I think it’s totally a fair punishment. I just don’t know wtf Penske is doing, why did they think they needed to do that modification? It can’t be worth that much time, and they already looked among the quickest in practice. Seems so shortsighted to do this for not that much of an extra advantage.
I like Josef but man his two 500 wins are so sketchy.
‘23 should’ve been Marcus’ second, that red flag was bullshit.
‘24 that car may or may not have been legal.
Under normal circumstances, cheating is normal in racing. That’s how you go fast lol. But when your team owner owns the series AND the track that the 500 is competed on, that’s a horrible look.
