NASCAR on Thursday settled an antitrust lawsuit brought by Michael Jordan’s racing team alleging that the organization holds a monopoly over premier stock car racing in the US and that its charter agreements are unlawful.

As a condition of the proposed deal, which came on the ninth day of a trial, NASCAR will amend the terms for existing charter holders, which will include a form of “evergreen” charters. Jordan’s team, 23XI Racing, and another plaintiff team, Front Row Motorsports Inc., will have chartered-team status for the 2026 season under the deal, according to a statement from the teams’ lead attorney, Jeffrey Kessler of Winston & Strawn LLP.

Chartered teams are guaranteed racing slots in NASCAR’s elite Cup Series. The parties declined to disclose financial terms of the deal.
