“This Is His Opportunity”: NASCAR Legend Opens Up on Why Bubba Wallace Might Exorcise His Demons at Talladega

It goes without saying that Bubba Wallace is somewhere on the top of the list of the NASCAR drivers who need a win this season. The 23XI Racing driver has had a dismal campaign so far, with bad luck and poor performances leaving him on the other half of the field.

But NASCAR Hall of Famer Dale Jarrett feels Wallace might just end this streak of poor performances soon.

The former NASCAR driver recently predicted the 23XI Racing driver to be one of the contenders to take the checkered flag at the Talladega Superspeedway next weekend.

“This is where Bubba’s win came and so he’s gotta be feeling like he’s ready to get there and make this happen again. This is his opportunity,” Jarrett said.

The spotter of Bubba Wallace feels Talladega could be the turning point

Freddie Kraft, the spotter of Bubba Wallace, suggested that the coming weekend at Talladega could be the point where his driver turns it around. After all, it is the same place where Wallace won the first NASCAR Cup race of his career, not to forget his superior record at superspeedways too.

“Ready for this 💩 to start being fun again. Talladega seems like a good place to start,” he tweeted.

Wallace himself had addressed the criticism he has been receiving for his train-wreck of a season so far.

The Talladega winner explained that they’re trying to get the “right people in place.” He elaborated that they have a great flow chart of everything that’s going on currently, that it all comes down to, “you doing your job, I’ll do my job and we’ll all do it together.”

“It’s a growing program,” Wallace said.

“It’s just mistakes that happen that we got to clean up,” Wallace continued. “Race teams have mistakes. We seem to have little bit more than others right now.”

“But (it’s) still early in the season, we’ll be fine.”
