Is The Senior Trolley Bus Allowed to Qualify?

63 year old Mario Andretti has decided to get back into professional car racing and will try and qualify for the Indy 500 this year. The last time this guy won the Indy 500 was before I even existed. He has said that he can't read the dials in his dash very well because of his poor eyesight but all he really needs to see is the road. Someone needs to make sure this sextagenerian doesn't leave his turn signal on during the race and for God's sake, stay out of the passing lane if you're only going to do 210 miles per hour! I heard that his pit crew will be allowed to add an extra resource to their equipment when Mario needs to pit. In addition to tires, fuel, water and spare parts, they'll have an oxygen tank recharger ready.
