Noah Gragson’s brief time at Legacy Motor Club appears to be over.
According to the Athletic, the team is parting ways with Gragson after it suspended him indefinitely on Saturday.
Shortly after Gragson was suspended by Legacy for what the team said were “actions that do not represent the values of our team,” NASCAR suspended him indefinitely for his “actions on social media.” Per screenshots that widely circulated on social media, Gragson liked an Instagram meme that mocked the 2020 death of George Floyd in Minneapolis.
Before NASCAR officially suspended him, Gragson issued an apology for his “lack of attention and actions on social media” and said that “I try to treat everyone equally no matter who they are. I messed up plain and simple.”
Legacy Motor Club announced Tuesday that sports car driver Mike Rockenfeller would drive the No. 42 car at Indianapolis on Sunday and at Watkins Glen on Aug. 20. There was no mention of Gragson's name in the announcement.
