It’s no secret to anyone that the biggest critic of Bubba Wallace is Bubba Wallace himself. Well, maybe not to his haters, but generally, Wallace is a self-admitted, self criticize of the highest order.
This was something he once again emphasized after the race at Watkins Glen where he ended up in 35th position post a DNF.
Wallace took to Twitter to call himself out as he wrote – “My road course finishes look like a shitty roulette table.”

However, not everyone shared his opinion of himself, certainly not his sponsor, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio, who replied to his tweet with a reassuring message. “We were still proud to be your sponsor today, @BubbaWallace. Appreciate how much you care,” their reply read.
As you’d come to expect at this point, a Wallace hater questioned the radio channel – “Why would you sponsor a loser?”
To this, SiriusXM decided to use a quote from the great Dr. Martin Luther King Jr along with another message of strength and belief for the 23XI Racing driver.
“Everyone deserves a chance to prove what they can do. We believe in @BubbaWallace and want to see him reach his full potential,” their reply read.
