NASCAR Cup Series competitors 23XI Racing recently announced their partnership with one of the sport's premier partners. They announced their intent in the highest echelon of stock car racing.

The Mooresville, North Carolina-based racing outfit is co-owned by current Cup Series driver Denny Hamlin and basketball legend Michael Jordan. It enters its third season, with last year proving to be a success for the team.

Telecommunications company Xfinity announced their partnership with 23XI Racing going forward. The company also acts as the entitlement partner for the junior Xfinity Series and premier partner for the Cup Series.

In a press conference, Comcast Cable Communications officials welcomed both Bubba Wallace Jr. and Tyler Reddick to the Xfinity racing fraternity.

23XI Racing's President Steve Lauletta took to Twitter to congratulate both parties on their partnership going forward and wrote:

"Thrilled to welcome another great company to the list of @23XIRacing partners. Thanks @Xfinity for being part of the team."

Xfinity's alliance with NASCAR as a sport has been seen across the entire nationwide series for quite some time now. The stepping stone into the Cup Series is named after the telecommunications giant itself.

With the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania organization also launching their 10G network, the newfound alliance with 23XI Racing brings much-needed eyeballs towards both organizations.
