23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports Sue NASCAR Over Charter Agreement

The lawsuit accuses NASCAR of monopolistic practices, challenging the new 2025 charter agreement.

23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports are the only teams that did not sign NASCAR's 2025 charter agreement, citing unfair terms.
The lawsuit claims NASCAR's charter system restricts competition by preventing teams from racing outside its circuit.
Plaintiffs argue that NASCAR's control over racetracks and charter agreements violates antitrust laws by limiting professional opportunities.
NASCAR is expected to defend itself by highlighting its role in creating a lucrative racing industry and promoting economic competition.
The case will test whether NASCAR's charter agreements unlawfully restrict competition or are essential for the sport's success.
