“That’s What Pays” – Bubba Wallace Reveals Ultimate Strategy to Surpass Chase Elliott in His Home Town

Bubba Wallace and Ty Gibbs are at the greatest risk as they stand at the tail end of the playoff list, as Chase Elliott might come and snatch their place. However, Bubba Wallace has proven himself with some strong runs, with four top 5s and five top 10s to his name. The No. 23 Toyota Tundra driver surely has been a strong contender for that playoff spot.

Chase Elliott undeniably made a great comeback by finishing in the top five in the last three races. But currently, being in 24th place and 55 points short of the playoff cutoff, it is not easy for the HMS driver. Chase is desperately looking for a victory the way he did last year on his home turf. Not just the HMS star, Bubba Wallace equally enjoys racing at Atlanta because of his good runs in the past.

This time, the North Carolina driver is determined to maintain his excellent performance at Atlanta Raceway. Having showcased his skills in the past, he is eager to share his strategy to secure the best possible results once again. While Chase Elliott is also looking to call his previous hiccups at Atlanta.

Bubba Wallace on his “strategy” for the Atlanta run

The impact of an aggressive driving approach on race outcomes has been witnessed numerous times in NASCAR. When someone hears the word “aggressive driving”, immediately Ross Chastain comes into the picture. However, Chastain has proven multiple times how the aggressive approach could bring success, as showcased in the initial runs of the season. However, on certain occasions, this approach has exposed Ross Chastain to serious consequences.

Similarly, Bubba Wallace is not afraid to make aggressive moves when it comes to winning. He is willing to take risks, even if it means spinning out or crashing. This aggressive driving style has paid off for Wallace many times, securing him several races and making him one of the most popular drivers in NASCAR.

At Atlanta Motor Speedway, the race will start late and take place under the lights, making it harder to tackle places in later stages. But Bubba Wallace believes something else.

The Frontstretch reporter asked Bubba, “We’re going to start the race in the day and then finish at night; is it going to be better to be more aggressive to begin with or later?”

Bubba was unhesitant to say, “Later, because that’s what fits right. The end of the race pays, not the beginning, so just have to be mindful of the situations that we’re in and the surroundings and just go out and have a good clean day”
