TALLADEGA, Ala. On Saturday at Talladega Superspeedway, NASCAR majority owner Jim France stepped down as chief executive officer and appointed Steve O'Donnell as his successor; France will remain chairman and retain his majority ownership stake. Ben Kennedy was promoted to chief operating officer, and O'Donnell becomes the first CEO from outside the France family. Charlotte, N.C., this week, the leadership change follows O'Donnell's more-than-three-decade tenure at NASCAR, including his promotion to president in March 2025. The transition comes after 2025 revenue-sharing negotiations that produced an antitrust suit and a December settlement granting teams permanent charters; immediate next steps include O'Donnell taking operational control and engaging with teams and sponsors.
