23XI Racing Boss Denny Hamlin Explains the Reason Behind Bubba Wallace’s Persistent Loose Wheel NASCAR Issue

NASCAR has been quite strict with the new rules. And, there are suspensions being handed out every weekend so far. However, the wheels have been the favorite so far. In fact, almost every race has seen a wheel come off and roll on the track or some issue or another related to the wheels. And, the most recent victim of wheel issues was the 23XI driver, Bubba Wallace.

Bubba lost his front left tire at the Circuit of The Americas, and along with the wheel, Bubba also lost his Crew Chief, Bootie Barker for the next four races.

What Happened To Bubba Wallace at COTA According to Denny Hamlin?

It seems that team 23XI’s boss, Denny Hamlin is not too thrilled about the incident either.

However, it seems the issue existed from the beginning of the race, at least, according to Denny who said, “from the evidence I’ve seen a loose wheel from the beginning of the race, and it just kept getting worse with each set of tires they put on.”

Although, it seems like even the team boss is not entirely sure about what happened and how, as he added, “I don’t know what caused it, I don’t know how or why but, it looked like the problem started on Lap 1 of the race.”
