Team Penske “continued its reshuffling of leadership positions” on Tuesday, naming Indianapolis Motor Speedway President Doug Boles to “the same position at IndyCar,” replacing Jay Frye -- who leaves the organization after 10 years in the role. Boles has served as president of IMS since 2013, a period that includes the sellout of the 100th Indianapolis 500, the first full-capacity crowd in the event’s history. The moves come two weeks after Tim Cindric, president of Team Penske and Roger Penske’s longtime right-hand man on competition, stepped back as the overall leader of the organization but remained president of the IndyCar program. Boles will report to Penske Entertainment President & CEO Mark Miles. Other changes included the promotion of Mark Sibla to SVP/IndyCar Competition & Operations; Kyle Novak to IndyCar VP/Officiating & Race Control; and Louis Kissinger to GM of Indianapolis Motor Speedway Operations (AP, 2/11).
