23XI and Front Row filed an antitrust lawsuit in federal court on Oct. 2 in Charlotte, against NASCAR and chairman Jim France. They were the only two teams that refused to sign the final offer of the new charter agreement, and they’re hoping to increase the revenue and influence of the sport’s teams with this lawsuit.

NASCAR clapped back at 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports after the pair of teams filed a second preliminary injunction against them as a strategic ploy.

23XI Racing has added Riley Herbst for a third full-time car in 2025, the team announced Wednesday. He joins Tyler Reddick and Bubba Wallace as teammates at the organization co-owned by Denny Hamlin and Michael Jordan.

The ongoing legal fight between 23XI Racing and NASCAR is heating up, with a recent statement from 23XI’s legal team raising questions about the future of the sport and the teams involved.

The NASCAR lawsuit saga takes another twist as 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports refile their motion for a preliminary injunction, citing new evidence and changed circumstances. At the heart of this legal battle lies NASCAR's charter agreement and allegations of monopolistic practices.
