A U.S. District Court granted 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports a preliminary injunction in their antitrust lawsuit against NASCAR.

A federal judge has issued a statement regarding the ongoing lawsuit between NASCAR, 23XI Racing, and Front Row Motorsports (FRM) over the Next Gen car's design, which has been criticized for its safety following incidents where drivers were injured. The judge's statement comes after significant changes were made to the car's design to enhance safety. The lawsuit, initiated by drivers and teams, claims that NASCAR was negligent in the design and implementation of the Next Gen car, which they argue prioritizes cost-saving over driver safety. The judge emphasized the need for a thorough examination of the evidence presented by both sides, highlighting the complexity of balancing innovation, cost, and safety in motorsport. This legal battle has drawn attention to the broader issues of safety standards in racing and could potentially lead to further modifications in NASCAR's approach to car design and safety protocols.
