A federal judge rules Chris Gabehart can work at Spire Motorsports but not in his former role at Joe Gibbs Racing (JGR). Gabehart serves as chief motorsports officer at Spire, overseeing TWG Global's racing operations. He made his Spire debut at the IndyCar event in St. Petersburg, Florida. The judge's ruling follows a motion from JGR seeking to restrict Gabehart's employment, with a full hearing set for March 16. JGR accuses Gabehart of stealing data, claiming over $8 million in damages. The judge orders Gabehart to return all JGR materials. Spire co-owner Jeff Dickerson emphasizes their commitment to trade secrets, asserting no ill will toward JGR. Spire fields Cup cars for Carson Hocevar, Michael McDowell, and Daniel Suarez and has an alliance with Hendrick Motorsports. JGR continues to pursue legal action to protect its information.
