With Truex, Kyle Busch, Bell and Denny Hamlin all under contract after this season, Joe Gibbs Racing was in a situation where they was damned if he signed Jones and damned if he didn’t.

ones isn’t in the top 10 because he’s had so many poor finishes in 2020. He’s finished outside the top 20 in nine races.
He got his first career victory in 2018 at Daytona in the July race and then won at Darlington in the Southern 500 in 2019.
Larson to the 14 Matt dibenedetto to the 20
No way Matt will leave 21 after just one year.
That opens the door for Christopher Bell to the 20
Hendricks racing will loose a lot of fans and respect if they put baby wallace in the 48 car. A slap in the face to all Jimmy has done for them
Bubba in the 48 ? Nooooolol
I agree-Get Rid of Bubba(Troublemaker) or Nascar is will continue to go down with sponsors, viewers, sales, etc.
You right he ain’t worth a shit at racing needs a new occupation
Totally agree
Lost all interest in NASCAR since they became ******!! Bubba Wallace also helped ruin NASCAR. I’ll fly my confederate flag through with the sport
I’m a huge 48 fan and if they put that crybaby in the that car that’s the day I stop watching Nascar. And I will get rid of all my memorabilia that I have collected the last 20 years
Thank you!
Surely Joe Gibbs won’t waste a ride on Bubb just to try to be pc. I don’t give a dam what color he is. “He can’t drive “.
Do not put Wallace in the 48 car!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!
why the ** would henderick motorsports even consider that **** wallace he a good fit at petty motors they use to not winning like kyle petty lmao he was worse than dale jr
Why he is just a loser Retire JIMMYS NUMBER
You can’t retire an number in nascar. If you hold the right to the number you can only shelf it for a certain number of years before it has to come back or taken by another team. That’s the case with the number 3
Don’t give a crap. NASCAR ruined racing, not one race watched this year. So it matters not who is what car.
Hendricks Motorsport do not need bubba if they do I’m done
I’m a Hendricks Motorsport fan have been since 1993 and if they put bubba in the 48 I will not watch NASCAR again for one bubba hasn’t even won a race it’s crazy it’s all becoming political
if you aint done already then why
Im just gonna say this…… have always been a big HMS fan. But if Wallace replaces Johnson in the 48….. Im done with NASCAR. Not looking for sympathy, just stating a fact
If Rick Hendrick signs Wallace it would not be good for his teams. Rick might as well shoot himself in the foot and get it over with. NASCAR fans are upset with Wallace and probably turn away from NASCAR. I think ticket sales and fans boycotting sponsors will hurt NASCAR in the pocket. Time will tell.
Who really cares NASCAR sucks now
Totally agree Bubba needs to go , ruining Nascar, losing fans.
What baffles me is Nascar is one of the few sports that are actually competing but yet they televise on a cable channel. Why cant they televise on Fox or NBC? I seriously losing interest in the sport have been a fan of Jimmie and sad that he is retiring on such a mess of a season. Would like to see him race one more year so he can properly race with fans giving him the final send off he so deserves. End of Soap Box.
I have watched Jimmie race since he started. If they put cry baby babba in that car, I will never watch another race. They need to retire his number with him.
HMS is looking to lose fans of Bubba gets put in the 48 car. I stopped watching anyway along with several others.
NASCAR CAN JOIN NBA, MLB AND NFL ON THE LIST OF SPORTS I WILL NEVER WATCH AGAIN!
Talk about Cry Babies, read your comments people. Retire his # , get real , these aren’t jerseys. All the great driver #’s still race. Despite the fear that a black man succeeds in your white sport , get use to it. You and your comments will not be missed in Nascar, Bye Bye
Wallace in the 48, who thought that up? Never gonna happen. If Wallace ends up in anything other than a Petty car, its just something better to wreck.
Rumor has it that the 48 will be retired and Hendrick will bring out the #5 and look for new sponsors and driver.
Why the hell would Hendrick motorsport put Wallace in the 48? My time as a Nascar fan has come to an end, Rick you have always put the best in your rides, why stop now?
Bubba will not succeed.I have been watching him come up through the ranks. He does not have the driving skill, courage, or mindset to win.
