Noah Gragson, NASCAR Team Part Ways After Suspension Over Social Media Activity, per Report

Legacy Motor Club has parted ways with NASCAR driver Noah Gragson, and he will not drive for the team for the rest of the season, according to a Tuesday morning report from Jordan Bianchi of The Athletic.

Gragson, 25, was suspended indefinitely Saturday for what NASCAR termed his “actions on social media.” The Associated Press later reported that those actions included liking a meme on Instagram making light of George Floyd’s murder by Derek Chauvin in May 2020.

The team announced Tuesday that Mike Rockenfeller, a German road-course driver, will drive Gragson’s former No. 42 car for the next two races.
