Fresh off another Indianapolis 500 victory last weekend, his record 18th as an owner, it would be hard to blame Roger Penske if he felt exhausted.
Quite the contrary, though. The 82-year-old business mogul and founder of Penske Racing says he feels better than ever ahead of this weekend's Chevrolet Detroit Grand Prix, presented by Lear.
“I’ve got a lot of energy, and I’m gonna be here as long as I can be here,” Penske said at Thursday’s lunch to preview the 30th weekend of open-wheel racing on the streets of Detroit.
