Bubba Wallace Reveals He Embarrassingly Forgot to Reply to Toyota Executive After His Maiden NASCAR Win

Bubba Wallace sat down for an interview with a reputed magazine recently, where he revealed how bad he is at texting and his tendency to forget to press the send button.

During the interview he was asked, what would he rate himself between the numbers 1 to 10 in regard to replying to text messages. Wallace responded, “Did you say a scale of one to 10? Zero.” The interviewer then followed by asking if he was that bad.

Wallace then continued, “I’m the worst at that. And also some people might call BS on this, but it’s typing out a message and never hitting send. So when you go to text somebody, it’s like, “Hey, there’s a whole f**king paragraph. I had one or two after my Talladega win. One of the Toyota execs texted me a super nice, long message. I responded instantly. But never hit send.”

Wallace claims to be a horrible text message responder, especially when there are long paragraphs to respond to. He also once forgot to hit the send button after his iconic win at Talladega.

Bubba Wallace won his first-ever NASCAR Cup Series race creating history

Wallace won the race at the infamous Talladega Superspeedway race last season. Thus, becoming the first African American man to win a Cup Series since the legendary Wendell Scott won at Jacksonville back in 1963.

What’s even better is that he won the race in a team co-owned by the legendary Chicago Bulls NBA player Michael Jordan. Talladega is often known as the biggest track across the sport, but also no stranger to some of the biggest wrecks that often take out half the grid in one go. Wallace’s win at the track was memorable for everyone, including the 23XI Team, since it was their first win collectively as a team.
