An excited Bubba Wallace’s voice was heard telling his team over the radio, “Well, this should piss the haters off.”as he took his first lead of the day with eight laps to go in Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series race at Talladega.
However with just six laps remaining, Bubba found himself running into the wall as he tangled with No.22 Joey Logano for the lead, ending his hopes for a win.
Wallace pitted and was able to mend his car and refuel, avoiding a huge pile up and oushing his way back into the top five. however, it just wasn’t meant to be for Bubba, as he wrecked again while trying to make a late push for the lead, getting turned around after making running into the outside wall.
