Penske will be like Bernie E, if they keel over in a business meeting, it will be a fitting end as far as they are concerned. Penske will probably still be around for another 20 years. I just can never see him retiring.

He owns at least a thousand different businesses, maybe more and I'm sure someday it will end up in some sort of family run and controlled group.

Likely because no one knows who these guys are or what the irl is anymore, it's not going to be a big media story and the Penske's can afford to lawyer or PR up with whatever they need to smooth everything over. I can see at least one bill for new sexy boots though.
