Ahh, but you forget that Porsche did indeed build a car for the IndyCar series from about 1988 to 1990, and they participated in the Indy 500 race during those years.
Teo Fabi was their primary driver, and the pictures below show him with his Porsche in the 1988 race (green) and the 1990 race (blue).
Ironically, though, at that time the official tire supplier for the series was Goodyear, as you can see in the pictures!
