Team Penske’s “Season for the Ages” with Roger Penske

PIT PASS INDY – SEASON 4, EPISODE 58 – Team Penske’s “Season for the Ages” with Roger Penske

November 12, 2024

Show host Bruce Martin celebrates Team Penske’s “Season for the Ages” as Team Penske nearly completed a sweep of 2024.

Penske won the NASCAR Cup Series Championship for the third season in a row, the fifth in team history, when Joey Logano won the NASCAR Cup Series Championship with a victory in the final race of the season at Phoenix Raceway on November 10, 2024.

It’s the first time Roger Penske’s team won the Indianapolis 500 with Josef Newgarden, the NASCAR Cup Series Championship with Logano, the IMSA WeatherTech Sports Car Title with Porsche Penske Motorsport and the World Endurance Championship (WEC) Drivers’ title, also with Porsche Penske Motorsport.

Ironically, the only season championship that Penske didn’t win in 2024 was the NTT IndyCar Series Championship.

Penske is the owner of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, the Indianapolis 500 and IndyCar.

His latest title is the first time his NASCAR Cup Series team has finished 1-2 in the championship.

It was the third-straight NASCAR Cup Series Championship for Penske. In the 76-year history of NASCAR, he is just the third team owner to win at least three NASCAR Cup Series Championships in a row.

Penske joins legends Junior Johnson and Rick Hendrick in that category.

In the world of racing, "Penske" means performance ... and winning. For good reason. Since 1966, Team Penske has won 44 national championships, 17 IndyCar alone. And last year, Team Penske recorded its second-straight NASCAR Cup Series championship and won its record 19th Indianapolis 500. Those are results that are tough to top.
