Bubba is one of the stars of the sport and basically pulled a dumbass and downright dangerous move early on in the race as in not even half the race was done. A lot of us root for bubba knowing the causes he’s behind and all but any driver who did what he did would be called for getting suspended for a race at minimum.

Bubba Wallace is a big baby. He didn't like that Larson was racing hard and bumped him into the wall so he nose dived down the track to spear Larson, wrecking both cars out of the race as well as another guy who was racing for the playoffs. Then when out of the cars Bubba went over and started shoving Larson again.

I’m sure McDonald’s will be pleased to see their logo front and center on that video.

2 drivers this year in NASCAR have gotten concussions with the new car being unsafe and have had their seasons cut short. One driver, Kurt Busch (Wallace’s teammate) just announced he is retiring due to his head injury. Wallace himself has deemed this car unsafe. Today, Bubba Wallace decided it would be a good idea to right hook Larson into a wall drivers-side first at 180 mph. Then thought it would be a good idea to attack Larson when he exited his car. Complete embarrassment for himself and the sport. Lack of awareness and empathy.

I know it’s a trick of perspective but that official dude looks absolutely fucking huge.

If NASCAR doesn’t give him a fine or suspension then they’re a joke. You’re right, it could have killed him or turned his brain to mush. I wouldn’t be surprised if Larson has concussion like systems. Rule #1 is racing is don’t right rear someone head on into the wall. Then he doubled down in his interview and acted like a pompous douche. Told the interviewer to “stop fishing” when asked if wrecking someone at 180 mph was unsafe. Compared to Larson who gave a sympathetic and professional interview after being put in danger and then attacked. Even worse his BOSS has been the #1 advocate for safer racecars. Disgusting stuff across the board. Like, how can you be that stupid?

Wow, I don’t know the rules for NASCAR racing, but this Bubba Wallace guy is fucking out of control. Deliberately crashed into the Larson driver after being bumped against the wall. Wtf?? Get this guy off the fucking track!

Ok. I just read this dude Larson was fired from his team a few years ago for saying a racial slur. So obviously these two have some history. But still, what Wallace did was fucking dangerous and could have gotten other drivers killed

Circus stunts was the flyby in Top Gun. I’d have gone with the monkey ****ing a football line from Days of Thunder. But on the other James you probably weren’t trying to reference To Cruise movies

I don’t think that has much to do with it. I mean you never know but I doubt it. These two have been around each other racing since they were teenagers. That’s why I was surprised Bubba put him in a dangerous spot like that. After the slur thing, Bubba was one of the first people to come out and say he knows Larson personally and knows he’s isn’t a racist, just said something dumb. He and Larson helped with an urban youth racing school together for years before it. I agree though, the slur things makes this situation a little more complicated because even if Larson wanted to, he CANT fight back. But yeah, he potentially gave the guy a brain injury and then decided to go push him around after lol, just stupid.

Did you not read what I said? I said show me a video where Tony Stewart right reared someone to the wall drivers side first? Neither one of those have anything to do with that.

Yeah this about a guy right rearing someone head on into a wall at 180 mph when there’s been multiple head injuries this year in the sport. If you think that behavior is ok then that’s your problem not mine. There is no deeper meaning here. One driver had a serious lapse of judgment and awareness and could have hurt someone. You didn’t “check” anything.

Actual context. Kyle Larson made a low pass on Kevin Harvick and Bubba Wallace. Kevin Harvick backed out but bubba kept racing. Kyle Larson took the turn too fast and had to move further and further up the track. Bubba ran out of track and made contact with the wall. He then turned back down the track and hit Larson in the right rear spinning his car and taking him out of the race. After both cars were wrecked Bubba got out of his car and walked down the track to yell at and shove Larson.

Ironically with the current economic model of the sport about 90% of the drivers are rich or come from rich families, you basically have to buy your way into getting opportunities to show you're good.

Tony turned left into kyle and caused him to go head first into a wall while he was in first. He then got hit a second time at over 180mph. This was more dangerous then what happened this weekend

Stop reaching. These are not the same situations and you know it. One was done with intent while the other wasn’t. You are the first person I’ve ever seen who has claimed this was done on purpose.

My biggest take away from all of that was Larson just letting himself get pushed multiple times. Come on on man bow up and stand up for yourself. At the very least shouldnt have been turning away from him.

uhhhh yeah, and hit the golden quota driver. This incident was commentary on life in the united states currently. had larson retaliated wallace would be the victim and we'd all be hearing about nooses in the garage again. wallace is a scumbag.
