Team Penske fires the senior management team after the fraud scandal

The Indycar Powerhouse team Penske released its entire management team on Wednesday morning on Wednesday morning, just five days before the Indianapolis 500 after being caught in a fraudulent scandal that overshadowed the largest car race in the world.

Roger Penske, who belongs to the racing team, the Indycar series and the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, announced team president Tim Cindric, Managing Director Ron Ruzewski and General Manager Kyle Moyer, who had left the organization.
