NASCAR has been a competitive sport from the onset and has seen plenty of rivalries over the years. On the other hand, there have been drivers who have got along pretty well, especially off the tracks. One such pair is that of Bubba Wallace and Ryan Blaney. The duo gets along so well that they are comfortable roasting each other publicly. Recently, Wallace posted a funny message roasting his good friend.
In the past as well, both Wallace and Blaney have repeatedly tried to pull each other’s leg in a public forum. Truth be told, few drivers can do this effectively and in good spirits. His recent banter brought some hilarious responses from NASCAR fans.
