Watch out, NASCAR fans—an iconic name is debuting a team at Daytona
“It’s an honor to be behind the wheel for Floyd Mayweather’s entrance into NASCAR. It’s a really exciting time in our sport as it globalizes and reaches new audiences,” Grala said in a team release. “I know Floyd is here to win, and I absolutely feel that everyone involved in this program is capable of making that happen. We know we will need some time to grow together as a new organization, but I couldn’t be more thrilled to be a part of building this team from the ground up.
The team does not have a charter, which means they will not have a guaranteed entry for races. They will have to qualify to earn a spot in the 40-car field for the Feb. 20 race. The team plans to run a part-time schedule this season, per FOX Sports’s Bob Pockrass. Mayweather joins a group of elite A-listers who have flocked to the sport in recent years. Basketball legend Michael Jordan and rapper Pitbull both own NASCAR teams—23XI Racing and Trackhouse Racing, respectfully—and UFC President Dana White recently struck a marketing deal with the Pittbull’s team.
