Hélio Castroneves drove for Penske from 2000 until 2019 in both CART and the IRL. Little Al did two stints, first with Galles Racing, from 1983 - '93 and then with TeamPenske from1994 - 1999. Al Unser Sr, raced with Vel's Parnelli Jones racing from1969 - 1977 and Michael Andretti raced with Newman-Hass from 1989- 2000.
A wonderful list Mssr bjs.

I'm so ashamed though, as you forgot the man that stuck with one team for 28 years..... vvv
