Penske is running the Porsche IMSA program and would, I'm sure, be interested in a Porsche Indycar team. Porsche have won F1. They've not won the Indy 500.

Great !!! no conflicting allegiances for me ;-)
They should focus on endurance and their synthetic clean fuel. Sooner or later politicians will figure out the 2035 electric car mandates will not happen (lack of electrical supply - even now, lack of sufficient charge points, dirty rare minerals used for batteries) - and Porsche can swoop in with an acceptable solution of a super clean fuel made of carbon pulled from thin air, to delay that cutoff.. Also competing with another VW brand was dumb.
