Michael Jordan, known for his iconic basketball career, has also made waves in the world of NASCAR as the owner of the 23XI Racing team, which competes in the Cup Series.

Fans, especially those who followed Jordan’s early NASCAR ventures, expressed sorrow at the idea that the focus was shifting away from the heart and soul of the sport—drivers and passionate fans. Many have turned to social media, lamenting the impact this deal could have on the spirit of NASCAR. The drama surrounding the deal has created tension, leaving some questioning whether the sport will ever recover its former glory. As emotions run high, fans are left wondering what lies ahead for both NASCAR and the enduring legacy of Michael Jordan in the racing world.
