Michael Andretti or Roger Penske has never won the Indy 500. End of. Their

drivers have, their cars have, but they have not. FACT.
It's a sad day when you don't have to actually compete to win something.
You 
have a weird view of life.

Yes, they usually won when they did too. Oh, until Uncle Tony decided they

couldn't and DQ'd them

So AGR have won a valueless race against no real competition since 2003. 
What a fantastic achievement.
