Judge sides with 23XI, Front Row Motorsports in pivotal ruling, NASCAR decides on next step

The latest development in the controversial NASCAR Cup Series charter transfer from Stewart-Haas Racing to 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports has been shared by FOX’s Bob Pockrass.

Evidently, Judge Kenneth D. Bell has ruled in favor of there being no delay on the injunction order, which means the transfer can officially take place, opening up the door for both teams to expand in 2025 as planned.

“Judge ruling: No delay in enforcing requirement that NASCAR approve a charter transfer to Front Row,” Pockrass posted on X. “But as far as SHR transfer to 23XI, team has to ask for that again because preliminary injunction request was for FRM (I believe b/c 23XI had not yet formally asked for transfer).”

Moreover, Matt Weaver of Spotsnaut added that NASCAR is going to appeal the decision: “NASCAR will now appeal that decision to the Fourt Circuit of Appeals,” he posted on X.

This story is developing and will be updated.
