Bubba was looking for a huge point haul at Talladega, if not the win. However, his last-lap crash with Hendrick Motorsports’ William Byron and teammate Kurt Busch ended his hope for the same. After the crash, Wallace Jr conveyed on the radio to his spotter Freddie Kraft, “I don’t know if I can take anymore f****** hits like that.”

How did the race go for Bubba Wallace at Talladega Superspeedway?

Bubba Wallace started the Talladega race from 9th place, ahead of Tyler Reddick of Richard Childress Racing. Despite starting from behind the 23XI driver managed to see himself win the stage one ahead of Kyle Larson of Hendrick Motorsports.

In stage two, Bubba pushed Joey Logano of Team Penske leaving him exposed against the barrier. Joey went against the wall which led to a multi-car crash. The race carried on and there was no crash involving Bubba until the last lap.

Meanwhile, the 23XI driver managed to keep his control until he got hit by Kurt Busch. The teammate of Bubba at 23XI racing hit the wall after Kyle Larson triggered the wreck. Busch then hit back at the number 23 driver that led him to crash with William Byron again.
