"NASCAR Reinstates Cody Ware Following Dismissal of Assault Charges"
NASCAR has reinstated Cup Series driver Cody Ware after assault charges against him and his then-girlfriend were dismissed. Ware was suspended in April following an altercation, but both parties decided not to cooperate with prosecutors. The charges were dropped due to lack of testimony, and civil litigation filed against Ware's ex-girlfriend will also be dismissed. Ware's team had filed lawsuits claiming false statements were made to harm his career and the team. Ware, who has been open about his mental health battles, has one top-10 finish in 97 career Cup starts.
