The Steinbrenners are MASSIVELY cutting player and personnel payrolls this year with the Yankees, they are losing money fast. And they didn't pony up anything for Herta previously, doubt any money is coming in from the family at all. Given the statements from Hal (dad to GMS IV) prior to his death the racing is George Michael's thing not the family.
