Judge Orders NASCAR Teams to Turn over Financial Data to Stock Car Series, Limits Details

U.S. District Judge Kenneth Bell ruled on June 25, 2025, that 12 NASCAR teams must provide anonymized annual financial data dating back to 2014 to NASCAR for an ongoing antitrust lawsuit.
This ruling follows disputes where NASCAR subpoenaed 13 teams, seeking detailed financial and communication records over 11 years, despite teams citing a charter agreement requiring mediation, not court, for disagreements.
The data will exclude ancillary business revenues and non-Cup Series activities, be aggregated on a per-car basis, and handled by an independent accountant to protect team identities amid concerns over competitive harm.
Attorney Adam Ross, representing 11 teams, described the subpoena as exceptionally wide-ranging and invasive, cautioning that revealing the requested information could severely harm both competitive fairness and the teams’ business interests.
The ruling enables NASCAR to assess claims of financial burden under the charter agreement and sets a trial date for December 1, 2025, while underscoring ongoing tensions between NASCAR and its teams over transparency and competition.
