It was his second Indy five-hundred victory and the sixteenth for Team Penske.

Zero other racing team has recorded more wins at the Brickyard than Staff Penske, and it began with driver Mark Donohue's victory in 1972. Penske and Donohue established their relationship six years earlier when Penske transitioned from driver to team owner. They quickly found success in SCCA's Trans-Am Series, with Donohue piloting an early Camaro Z/28 race car, winning three of 12 races in 1967 and 10 of 13 in 1968.

Penske tackled the Indy 500 initially in 1969 while still campaigning a Camaro in Trans-Am. Donohue was his drivers for both series. Later on, racers including Mario Andretti, Al Unser, and David Mears drove for Penske, with Mears winning four Indianapolis 500 races and helping solidify Team Penske as an Indy powerhouse in the 1980s. That legacy advances this coming year, as Roger Penske seeks his 17th Indy 500 title as a team owner.
