Donohue Wins Record Purse at Indy 500
Mark Donohue won the 56th Indy 500 to collect 218,767.90 and help Penske Racing earn a record purse of 1,011,845.94. The victory dinner reflected tension as Jerry Grant was dropped from second to 12th on a fuel-lean protest led by Al Unser, with Unser claiming Grant took fuel from Bobby Unser’s tank. Grant’s team may appeal to USAC. Donohue’s win followed Bobby Unser’s mechanical failure after leading early.
