NASCAR's Money Maze: Drivers and Teams Speak Out

USAMonday, October 7, 2024

For years, NASCAR has been a sport filled with passion and big money. But the way that money is divided among drivers, teams, and the France family (who own NASCAR) has caused some issues. Recently, two teams called 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports decided to take legal action against NASCAR. They want a fairer share of the money. Most people in the sport haven't said much about this, but driver Kyle Larson did. He compared NASCAR to other sports leagues and made an interesting point: while athletes in many sports make more money each year, NASCAR drivers often make less. A big problem is that teams can only race in NASCAR. They also have to buy parts from vendors chosen by NASCAR. This makes things expensive for teams, and it affects how much money the drivers and other team members make. Some famous teams like Hendrick Motorsports haven't made a profit in years. One of their leaders, Jeff Gordon, admitted this. But why don't these big teams just fight back against NASCAR? It turns out that a long legal battle could hurt the people who work for these teams. There have been reports about NASCAR putting pressure on teams to sign deals quickly or lose their spots in races. One team owner, Richard Childress, said he had no choice but to sign. He has many employees and important business contracts to protect. Now this debate is in court. No one knows what will happen next. So far, NASCAR hasn't shared its side of the story publicly.
