Rinus Veekay has suggested that Team Penske should have faced a different punishment for their168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史🧜: controversy in 𝕴Indy 500 qualifying.

Penske’s Josef Newgarden and Will Power failed a technical inspection during Fast 12 a🎃nd were not allo♚wed to head out to the track.

The rear attenuator on both cars was at fault 🌌for an illegal modification.

The Team Penske duo did not take part in Sunday’s sessions, the second day of qualifying, and were later ruled to start a▨t the back of🐽 the field for next weekend’s Indy 500.

But Veekay, who survived the💛 Last Chance Qualifying session by bumping out Jacob Abel, thinks another ruling would be bett꧟er suited.

“The cars we🐽♑nt through tech several times last week,” Veekay was quoted by Indy Star.

“It was only discovered at that point.

“I would have thought it was fair if꧙ they had to go to the Last Chance Qualifier and deserved to fight their way into the field.

🌠“It's an even more unfortunate situation for Jacob now.

"If you had told me a week ago that I'd be starting on 𓃲the 𒐪same row as two Penskes, I would have been very happy!

"Unfo🍰rtunately,⛄ we're at the tail end of the field."

Should Jacob Abel replace Team Penske in Indy 500?

Veekay, whose Last Chance Qualifying progression meant he would have started 33rd, at the back, has now been nudged forward two positions with the Pen🍬ske cars behind him.

Veekay’s Dayle Coyne Racing teammate Abel was the sole driver to be pushed out of the race aft𒅌er Sunday’s qualifying.

His exclusion can be viewed differently now, after Team Penske’🌜s violaꦕtion.

Abel said: “I do appreciate everyon🍰e’s support, saying we sho🎉uld be in the race because we were legal.

“But at the end of th🔯e d💟ay, we knew what we should do on Saturday and Sunday and, unfortunately, we came up short.

“I want to be in the  more than anything in th🍎e world, but I don’♚t want to be there on a technicality.

“I want to deserve to be there. And we have our chances like every other car did and we d🎶i🌳dn’t make it.”

T🃏eam Penske have come under fire from several wi🔴thin the IndyCar paddock since their exclusion from qualifying on Sunday.

168澳洲🏅幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Scott Dixon insisted it was “a bad look” for the series.

McLaren’s Zak Brown went further by que♑stioning the decision-making of the Team ༒Penske bosses.
