    Bubba Wallace admits to "throwing" his team "under the bus after bad races"

    23XI Racing’s No. 23 driver Bubba Wallace is a judge of himself when it comes to racing.

    Wallace is very vocal about criticizing himself when he has bad races. After a run of bad races earlier in the season, Wallace said that he needs to be replaced if the results don’t improve.

    He is in fine form recently and had a second-place finish in the NASCAR All-Star race at North Wilkesboro Speedway. However, at times he has had heated arguments with his crew.

    Wallace admitted that he lets the emotion take the better of him sometimes but also praised his pit crew.

    “It’s nice to give those guys get the spotlight, right. I think often, I’m guilty of it, throwing those guys under the bus after bad races,” Wallace said.

    “It’s just cool, kind of bringing that Pit Stop Challenge back. Our pit crew this year has been solid. They’ve been really good. Kansas was really good for us. Rebounded last week from that first stop. I’m excited. I was talking to those guys. I think we have a legit shot at laying down a good time. We just got to go and execute.”

    Wallace is yet to win this season, but it seems like he is inching closer towards a win. He has won one race each in the last two years. However, he will be looking to make the playoffs in his third season with 23XI Racing.
