IndyCar president Jay Frye is the commissioner of the series he oversees. Penske Entertainment CEO Mark Miles often represents the executives, including team owner Roger Penske, in addressing the media. Together, they met with the press at Barber Motorsports Park to discuss Team Penske’s push-to-pass (P2P) scandal. The team tampered with Central Logger Units (CLU), allowing full-time P2P access across two events, leading IndyCar to restrict CLU access. The CLUs serve as hubs for data collection and transmitting P2P instructions to the engine control modules (ECU). In response, IndyCar has incorporated CLU P2P software checks in technical inspections and post-race analysis to prevent future infractions. Despite the severe penalties handed out, Team Penske will not receive special treatment moving forward, according to Frye and Miles.
