Denny Hamlin, co-owner of 23XI Racing, has expressed uncertainty about the team’s participation in upcoming NASCAR events, including the 2025 season. This uncertainty stems from an antitrust lawsuit filed by 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports against NASCAR, challenging the fairness of the current charter system and revenue-sharing model.
The lawsuit alleges that NASCAR’s practices limit competition and unfairly bind teams to the series and its suppliers. Hamlin has been vocal about these concerns, stating that the system is “unfair” and has reached a tipping point.
As a result of these ongoing legal disputes and financial challenges, Hamlin has indicated that it’s uncertain whether 23XI Racing will participate in events like the Busch Light Clash at the Coliseum or the Daytona 500. He mentioned, “It’s TBD if 23XI Racing is at the Clash or Daytona.”
The outcome of the lawsuit and subsequent negotiations with NASCAR will play a significant role in determining the future of 23XI Racing. Fans and stakeholders are closely monitoring the situation, hoping for a resolution that allows the team to continue competing at the highest level of stock car racing.
