News Summary:

NASCAR CEO Steve O’Donnell indicated on July 8 that Prime Video wants to broadcast more NASCAR races but this is unlikely before 2031 due to existing contractual obligations, noting that Prime Video "wish they would have bought more." Earlier on July 8, attorney Jeffrey Kessler of Winston Taylor was recognized for leading the trial team representing Front Row Motorsports and 23XI Racing, co-owned by Michael Jordan and Denny Hamlin, in antitrust litigation challenging NASCAR’s ability to revoke charters that guarantee teams race spots and a portion of income. Previously, on July 7, NASCAR announced it is mapping out its course for next summer, potentially bringing back the Chicago Street Race after a one-year hiatus and adding the long-dormant Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet to its regular schedule. This follows a successful return to Chicagoland Speedway over the July Fourth weekend, which showcased a positive racing product on asphalt aged seven years since NASCAR’s last race there, providing multiple racing lanes.
