Bubba should just drive. If he is too distracted to focus on driving then do a Kapernick and become a full time activist. Let someone who wants to focus on driving take his seat.

If I want politics I will pay for politics. I am paying for Nascar so Bubba should **** and focus on driving.
I watched the Brickyard, my first NASCAR race in years. Never once did they mention Bubba's politics and I watched most of the race. He was only mentioned a handful of times due to performance. Indy in a stock car is far from an easy race.

Things were settling down and then Trump reignited it with his stupid tweet.
Talladega was a joke. Interviewing him and him climbing the fence like winners do after the race for finishing 14th.

As a racer you don't do a victory dance when you haven't won. No reason to climb that fence.

You admittedly are no longer a race fan. I am looking at it as a racing fan, you are looking at it politically.

People arent fans of nascar , they are fans of racing. They dont have to have nascar to enjoy racing. I think the trend will be many more small dirt track raceways in the future. Then all of the fans can come and have a good time. No band on rebel flags either.......

Amen Bubba Wallace kept it up, how afraid he was...its a noose, get real

Tired of the stupidity, he is not a great driver, but he loves attention.

I can't say I blame the crowd, wasn't Bubba gifted his spot in the race?

Trump asking somebody else to apologize for promoting a hoax. That's rich.
