Newgarden’s regular strategist Tim Cindric and race engineer Luke Mason were both suspended by legendary team owner Roger Penske from IndyCar duties following the illegality scandal that has marred the start of the season.
Newgarden was disqualified from his season-opening St. Petersburg victory due to illegal use of push-to-pass during restarts after all three of Penske’s entries mistakenly ran with software that allowed him to do so.
