Breaking News: We say Goodbye to Michael Jordan today, Announced sad departure From NASCAR Community…

NASCAR President Steve Phelps vowed that fans will know where Cup races will air in 2025 despite the series having more broadcast partners than this past season.

Phelps also discussed the cost and value of the Chicago Street Race and what NASCAR has invested in fan amenities at tracks it owns during a session Tuesday at the Fifth Annual Race Industry Week sponsored by Racer.com, epartrade.com and Speed Sport.

Phelps was not asked about the antitrust lawsuit that 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports filed against NASCAR and NASCAR Chairman Jim France.

NASCAR and France both submitted a motion to dismiss the case Monday.

The two teams suing NASCAR over an antitrust complaint said Saturday that they will compete in 2025 as “open teams” after the sanctioning body removed anticompetitive release claims that will allow them to race while the legal process continues.

23XI Racing, the team owned by NBA Hall of Famer Michael Jordan and three-time Daytona 500 winner Denny Hamlin, and Front Row Motorsports refused in September to sign take-it-or-leave-it revenue sharing offers made by NASCAR just 48 hours before the start of the playoffs.

The teams have filed an antitrust suit accusing NASCAR of being “monopolistic bullies.”

They were denied in federal court last week a request to be recognized as “chartered” teams as the suit continues.

A charter is essentially a franchise and guarantees prize money, a spot in the field each week and other protections.
