Two NASCAR teams, including one owned by Michael Jordan, have filed a federal antitrust lawsuit against the stock car series and chairman Jim France. The lawsuit alleges that the new charter system restricts competition by unfairly binding teams to the series, its tracks, and its suppliers.
The lawsuit was filed in the Western District of North Carolina in Charlotte by 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports after two years of negotiations between NASCAR and the 15 charter-holding organizations in the Cup Series.
