The antitrust showdown between 23XI Racing, Front Row Motorsports and NASCAR is getting uglier by the day as we count down to the trial — all thanks to several batches of leaked internal messages and a growing sense of outrage from the fans.
Journalist John Newby just dropped a bombshell on X: the plaintiffs have filed a 44-page exhibit list, and what they’ve got in there is a way bigger deal than anyone expected. Newby says the list includes not one but multiple different versions of the charter-member agreement, chats between the teams that were meant to be kept under wraps, media rights deals, snaps of tracks all over the States, including Five Flags Speedway, and even a story that Jeff Gordon supposedly said Hendrick Motorsports hasn’t made a profit in ten years. Also, unsealed messages, profit and loss statements, and tax returns.
