The team s determined to make sure that anu blowbacks will be received by the teams not the crew.
As 23XI, we’re prepared for any outcome. I think Michael [Jordan] has stated and I’ve stated to the team we will not let this affect our employees whatsoever in any kind of way, and any financial distress is going to have to fall directly on the owners. It will not fall on our people whatsoever. We will not allow that to happen.

Denny Hamlin explains the motive behind filing injunction
The Joe Gibbs Racing veteran driver pointed out that the injunction was filed to stop NASCAR taking their charter as it will be massive irreparable harm. This is because of the fact that there is no point in 23XI winning the lawsuit but not having the charters.
We’re trying to stop NASCAR from taking our charters. Obviously, there would be massive irreparable harm there. We’re going to go to the courts and say listen, let us operate as a chartered team while this lawsuit goes on over the next year to two years. If you lose your charters and you win the lawsuit, then what? You can’t go back. It’s going to be tough to operate that way.
Denny Hamlin said.
NASCAR will be able to take away the charters as per the current contract, which is only valid till the end of this year. So, the injunction is the most significant part of the lawsuit at the moment for NASCAR as well as the two teams in the legal tussle.
