Every Team Penske RACER cover since 1992

Beginning with the first issue in May 1992, Roger Penske and Team Penske have been featured on the cover of RACER magazine 44 times. No other team comes close.

The video below looks back at those covers, which demonstrate the consistent excellence of the organization throughout RACER‘s first third-century, accompanied by a brief interview with Roger Penske, who offers his thoughts about the magazine. “It’s one of the magazines I look at cover-to-cover. I just think there’s good reporting and I love the graphics,” says Penske of RACER. “I would have to say the graphics and the color in this magazine has always been the best. Certainly, the quality of the articles and the knowledge of the people writing them makes a big difference, because the facts are correct – and that’s sometimes not the case.

“Sometimes they say when you get on the cover of a magazine it’s bad luck,” Penske adds, “but I think in the case of RACER, think about it – that many times and the success we’ve had, it’s about our people, and certainly the great drivers we’ve had. But we want some more…”

RACER celebrates its 33rd Anniversary with the May/June 2025 issue, as a new era dawns for the RACER brand with the addition of RACER Network on linear cable TV, steaming with the RACER+ app and FAST platforms.

Thank you to our loyal readers and advertisers for going the distance with us, as we race onward to RACER's future in print, digital and video content.

Paul Pfanner is the founder, President and Executive Publisher of RACER magazine and RACER.com and is also the CEO of the Racer Studio creative services and branded content agency. Pfanner began his career in racing media as an art director for FORMULA magazine and later, SportsCar magazine before failing spectacularly as he attempted to become an editor. All of this was a transparent ploy to fund Pfanner’s desire to race but after he proved to be unemployable, he had no choice abandon his racing ambitions so he started his own publishing house and creative agency in 1979 which was the forerunner of Racer Media & Marketing, Inc. Pfanner sold the majority of Racer Communications, Inc in January 2001 to Haymarket Media and re-acquired the company with his original partners Rob and Chris Dyson in March 2012 which now operates under the name Racer Media & Marketing, Inc.
