Kyle Larson Finds an Unlikely Ally Against Bubba Wallace in Twitter Scuffle After Las Vegas Blowup

There is no doubt that Kyle Larson has successfully established himself as one of the best drivers in NASCAR. After all, he is the current reigning champion. However, it is understandable that not everyone might see eye to eye with the Hendrick Motorsports driver.

Recently, a Stewart-Haas Racing employee posted an appreciation tweet for the #5 driver. In his tweet, Brian Murphy called Larson the ‘perfect race car driver in every way.’ But it seems that there was a Bubba Wallace fan who could not endure Murphy praising Larson. Especially after Sunday’s South Point 400.

Pointing out the mistakes that Larson has made throughout the years, Wallace’s supporter dismissed Murphy’s contention of Larson being perfect. And as a result, the Stewart-Haas Racing employee and the Bubba Wallace fan entangled in a Twitter scuffle.

The incident that took place at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway has obviously divided NASCAR fans into fragments. Although a considerable number of people are condemning Wallace’s actions on the field, there are still some supporters who are defending their favorite athlete.

What happened between Kyle Larson and Bubba Wallace in Las Vegas?

During the race, Kyle Larson apparently shoved Bubba Wallace inside the wall. While competing in a three-wide pass situation with Kevin Harvick and Bubba Wallace, Larson made contact with Wallace’s car on the turn. Infuriated by this, the 23XI Racing driver retaliated to get back at Larson.

However, in the process, he spun out the Hendrick Motorsports driver. And a third vehicle, belonging to Christopher Bell, became collateral damage in this retaliation. Wallace, Larson, and Bell’s vehicles suffered serious damage. And as a result, the three could not complete the race.

But apart from the on-track action, the NASCAR community seemed disappointed by Wallace’s reaction after the wreck. As soon as Larson spun out on the field, Wallace stepped out of his car and pursued Larson by walking up the live track. Following this, he shoved the Hedrick Motorsports driver several times while Larson did not retaliate to his physical assaults.
