US EditionHamlin remains confident over antitrust case against NASCAR
- On October 2, 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports filed an antitrust lawsuit against NASCAR in North Carolina.

- Overturning the injunction could force these teams to qualify at every race, risking loss of drivers and sponsors and causing significant disruption midseason, according to their attorney Jeffrey Kessler.
