  • Michael Jordan jadi pemilik tim NASCAR pertama yang berkulit hitam dalam 50 tahun terakhir. 
  • Predikat tersebut sebelumnya dipegang Wendall Scott yang memiliki tim NASCAR pada 1970-an.
  • Pengalaman masa kecil jadi alasan utama Michael Jordan ingin memiliki sebuah tim dalam ajang NASCAR.

SKOR.id - Michael Jordan mencatat sejarah sebagai orang kulit hitam pertama asal AS yang memiliki sebuah tim NASCAR dalam 50 tahun terakhir.

Legenda basket dan NBA ini membeli sebuah tim asal Jerman yang tampil di NASCAR bersama rekannya yang berprofesi pembalap, Denny Hamlin.

Namun, belum diketahui berapa Michael Jordan membeli tim NASCAR yang mulai mengaspal pada musim 2021 tersebut.

Forbes hanya menginformasikan Michael Jordan membeli saham mayoritas. Sedangkan rekannya, Denny Hamlin, berstatus pemilik saham minoritas.

Dengan status barunya ini, Michael Jordan mengikuti jejak Wendall Scott sebagai warga kulit hitam yang punya tim dan membalap di NASCAR pada era 1970-an.

Layaknya sebuah tim balap NASCAR yang lain, tim besutan MJ, sapaan Michael Jordan, juga memburu pembalap untuk musim depan.

Bubba Wallace didapuk menjadi pembalap utama tim milik Michael Jordan, yang saat ini belum memiliki nama resmi. 

Pembalap yang tiga tahun terakhir berseragam Richard Petty Motorsport ini menandatangani kontrak eksklusif terhitung sejak 2021.

MJ mengatakan, pengalaman masa kecil jadi alasan utamanya ingin punya tim NASCAR. "Saya tumbuh di South Carolina," katanya. 

"Orang tua sering mengajak saya dan kakak-kakak untuk menonton balapan. Saya jadi fan NASCAR seumur hidup."

"Jadi, bisa punya tim dengan bantuan Denny Hamlin, serta mengajak Bubba Wallace sebagai pembalap, adalah hal yang menyenangkan."

Michael Jordan mengatakan, NASCAR minim keberagaman. Hanya sedikit pemilik tim dari komunitas kulit hitam.

"Sekarang waktu yang tepat (untuk punya tim sendiri) karena NASCAR sedang berubah dan gencar melakukan pembaruan sosial."

Michael Jordan menjelaskan, rincian detail terkait tim balapnya seperti nama, sponsor, dan lain-lainnya akan diumumkan dalam waktu dekat.

Di sisi lain, Denny Hamlin akan tetap balapan untuk Joe Gibbs Racing meskipun memiliki saham minoritas di tim balap milik Jordan.
