The becomes the group’s maiden collaboration in auto racing, and represents a third ‘major’ marketing agreement in professional sports following similar agreements inked alongside the New York Jets and Cleveland Cavaliers.

“Fubo Sportsbook provides us with an opportunity to further expand NASCAR’s reach through a unique sports betting experience,” said Joseph Solosky, managing director of sports betting, NASCAR.
“Whether it’s the casual viewer or die-hard race fan, Fubo Sportsbook’s innovative approach to sports wagering brings a more exciting experience for our audience as they’re able to interact with the sport in new ways.”
