The Bubba Wallace and Kyle Larson incident at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway is something that not many will forget. However, it seems that the Hendrick Motorsports driver is quick to get over it. Although Wallace’s actions will follow him to the Miami-Homestead race, it looks like Kyle Larson has already put all of it behind him.

Last Sunday, Bubba Wallace shoved Kyle Larson several times on the Las Vegas field after their altercation on the track. Wallace, who had spun out Larson was suspended for one race by NASCAR. This was mainly because the governing body found his on-track actions to be a “dangerous act.”

Following this, Wallace also shared an apology on his Twitter feed. In his apology, he expressed his remorse for shoving the Hendrick Motorsports driver and wrecking Christopher Bell while spinning Larson out. However, fans were eager to know if the 23XI Racing driver apologized to Larson personally.

In a recent interview with Fox reporter Bob Pockrass, Kyle Larson opened up on his views on Wallace’s apology. When the Pockrass asked Larson if he had talked to Wallace at all since last Sunday, Larson simply answered; “No, we haven’t talked, yet. I am sure, hopefully, we’ll eventually.”

Furthermore, he said that he is not at all expecting an apology. He stated; “I feel like a lot of people are expecting him to reach out and apologize. I don’t expect an apology for anything. So, I am all good on my end.”

Hearing that the Hendrick Motorsports driver is not expecting any expression of regret, fans lauded him for taking the high road.
