Fans React to Bubba Wallace’s Remark Directed at Dale Earnhardt Jr’s NASCAR Driver, Noah Gragson, in Michigan

Noah Gragson had a major run-in with the outside wall during stage 2 of the NASCAR Cup Series that forced him to limp sideways back to the pits. The 24-year-old Xfinity driver was driving for Kaulig Racing and battling in the Top 5 before the incident.

After the race, Bubba Wallace commented on Gragson, which the fans did not seem to appreciate, further leading them to lash back at him.

“Well, here’s hoping that’s a learning lesson for him,” Wallace said over the radio.

He was running somewhere behind Gragson and had to avoid hitting the spinning Chevrolet. Gragson was not the only Xfinity driver to have trouble while driving in the Cup race yesterday.

Ty Gibbs also had a brush against the wall during the same time Gragson spun out.

Fans were quick to point out the irony of the comments coming from Bubba Wallace, as they reacted to it accordingly.

Although Wallace has been showcasing good form while delivering better results in the last few races, over his entire career, he has had only one win to his name and that was back in 2021 at Talladega.

Many fans took to Twitter to heckle Wallace by calling his statement to be ironic in nature.

They compare that Gragson has been performing really well in Xfinity, while Wallace, however, is on the opposite side of the spectrum.

Not everyone was so critical of Wallace though, some even took to defend the 23XI Racing driver.

One point that is being missed out here is that Noah Gragson is the Xfinity Series and what he does in the Cup Series can only be understood after he joins the series.

Meanwhile, Wallace sure took his time. However, we also have to consider that his team is fairly new compared to most teams on the grid, and in 2022, Wallace was also plagued by pit crew issues.

In order to draw an accurate comparison between the two, one would have to wait for Gragson to move up to the Cup Series.
