Overview
- In a new CBS interview, Jordan said he was “all in” on challenging NASCAR’s business model and willing to risk being kicked out to push for fairer treatment of the people who “put on the show.”
- The lawsuit he backed with 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports argued NASCAR’s 2016 charter system worked like a monopoly and shorted teams and drivers on money and recognition.
- The case settled on December 11, 2025, with NASCAR granting evergreen charters and improved terms for all teams, though most financial details were kept confidential.
- Jordan says the change was about equity for teams and drivers, and his 23XI group has underlined that message with four wins in the season’s first six Cup races, including the Daytona 500.
- Evergreen charters give teams permanent entry and firmer footing to plan staff, sponsors, and car investments, which could shift bargaining power across NASCAR’s governance in the months ahead.
