Helio Castroneves, Ryan Briscoe, Roger Penske, Team Penske

Roger Penske is a true champ, and a great businessman. Kudos to him for keeping the team rolling... It's a great benefit for all of us that are racefans.

How does the IRL not know about that program?

I agree ... somewhat. I know it's disappointing, but with the state of the economy, and sponsors pulling out left and right, it's obvious why one would not ever want to depart from a very long-term sponsor. Do take note, however, that the Marlboro name is no longer on the cars.

Regardless, I will continue to call "Team Penske" my favorite ... as I have for a great many years.

I think that there is a law that states that tobacco companies can't have their logo advertised, no matter if they sponsor the team. At least the European Union did that in Formula 1.
