NASCAR has hired a well-known lawyer in the lawsuit against 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports. Per Bob Pockrass of Fox Sports, the court filings state that NASCAR will be represented by Chris Yates whose client list includes the U.

XI Racing and Front Row are taking on NASCAR in an anti-trust lawsuit, challenging revenue splits and aiming for fairer terms. But it could all go very wrong.

Front Row Motorsports received two of the original Charters from NASCAR in 2016 and signed the extension for those Charters which expire Dec. 31, 2024. The team states in the suit that even though it made the playoffs in 2021 and 2023, it “has never generated a profit.”
