Judge Delays Decision on Chris Gabehart's Move to Spire Motorsports Amid Lawsuit

A federal judge delayed ruling on a temporary restraining order sought by Joe Gibbs Racing (JGR) to prevent former competition director Chris Gabehart from joining rival Spire Motorsports. JGR alleges Gabehart took proprietary information violating a non-compete clause. Gabehart appeared publicly at an IndyCar event in Spire gear while negotiations continue. The judge allowed Gabehart to work for Spire pending a Monday decision if no agreement is reached.
