“Just Cuss Without a Button” – Bubba Wallace Credits Temper Control to Recent NASCAR Success Amidst Radio Outbursts

Fans across the globe are aware of NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace and his passion for what he does. However, according to the 23XI driver, his recent radio outbursts and frustration are kind of unwanted by-products of the same.  

The 28-year-old driver is not having the 2022 NASCAR Cup Series season he wanted. And arguably, he has been in an emotional frenzy. To add fuel to this fire, Wallace finished second in the season-opening 64th Daytona 500. Being so close to winning the prestigious race, Wallace was yet again seen in an emotional state. 

Bubba Wallace looked back at his outburst on his team at Nashville. During the Ally 4, Wallace made his way to the seventh position but due to a loose wheel nut, he could only finish in P12, leading to his infamous radio outburst. 

How did Bubba Wallace make amends to the team?

Admitting that he made a mistake in the heat of the battle, Bubba Wallace made amends to the team. He said that his team understood the situation and is aware of his frustrations regarding his performance. However, the 23XI driver learned his lesson from the incident and made conscious efforts to control his temper in future races.

Talking about the same, he said, “It’s a product of knocking up.”

In response to this, Corey LaJoie expressed, “You know you just cuss without a button,” before Bubba continued, “I have a hell of a conversation with myself but man things have been better.” 

Talking about how his team reacted to his latest efforts, Bubba Wallace said, “Everybody (is) taking a step back, looking at themselves and seeing how we could do better.”

“And I could do better throughout the race… managing tempers, managing the race. Bootie can do better calling a better race. Pit crew can do a better job of keeping the tires on…”
