2023 is indeed a special year for Bubba Wallace. From tying the knot with his long-time girlfriend Amanda Carter on New Year’s Eve to getting back to riding his #23 Toyota Camry. There is a lot for Wallace to look forward to. And owing to this, a lot of NASCAR fans are curious about how the new year has been going for the Cup driver.
Recently, 23XI Racing driver Bubba Wallace posted an ‘Ask me anything’ story on Instagram. And following this, a flood of questions about the driver’s personal and professional life began popping up. A fan asked Wallace about what music tracks he intends to listen to before the first race of the season. Whereas another one asked if he did get any time to reflect upon his performance last year.

With some short and succinct replies to all the questions, Wallace seemed ready to take over anything. However, when a fan asked about how the 23XI driver’s newly married life was going, Wallace could not just express it with words! And to top it all, his answer received an icy stare from his wife, Amanda.
Sharing a picture of his wife while showing off his wedding ring in a hilarious manner, Wallace wrote, “Clearly..great😂😂”
Getting ‘dumped’ frustrated Bubba Wallace
The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum on Sunday night ended in frustration for Bubba Wallace. With just 10 laps to go, the 23XI driver along with Richard Childress Racing’s Austin Dillon found himself in a prime position that could have led him to the checkered flag.

However, soon, Dillon rear-ended Wallace and spun his #23 Toyota into the wall. While talking about how Dillon’s action made him feel, Wallace told Fox Sports reporter Bob Pockrass,
“The No. 3 just never tried to make a corner, he just always would run into my left rear. I got run into the fence by him down the straightaway on that restart, so I gave him a shot. And then we get dumped. It sucks.”

This definitely wrecked Wallace’s chances of making it to the checkered flag. Clearly, the 23XI driver was quite upset about it. Before the ensuing restart, Wallace veered right into Dillon’s #3 to let the RCR driver know how he did not appreciate his maneuver earlier in the race.
