The partnership brings together a Black majority team owner with the only Black driver in NASCAR’s top level. Jordan said in a statement, “Historically, NASCAR has struggled with diversity and there have been few Black owners. The timing seemed perfect as NASCAR is evolving and embracing social change more and more.”
