breaking news”: Bubba Wallace accuses NASCAR of instilling in drivers a “win at all costs” mentality.
The system’s fault. They created this system where you put it on the line, but at the same time, we always say will you wreck your mother to win? Of course, yeah. (laughter) No, you wouldn’t. I wouldn’t. You do everything in your power under the respectful line to win the race. Now people want to relate (Joey) Logano and (Martin) Truex at Martinsville the same as what happened to Richmond. Who are these people? He moved him out of the way, knocked him out of the groove, and they drag raced to the line.” [8:50]
Bubba Wallace weighs in on whether Austin Dillon should’ve been suspended by NASCAR
Considering Bubba Wallace was suspended for right-hooking Kyle Larson in 2022, and Chase Elliott was as well for his incident with Denny Hamlin, Bubba Wallace was asked whether a suspension was warranted for Austin Dillon instead of the penalty which was.
“Retaliation is retaliation, so if we are going to set the line there, then yeah, but myself and Chase (Elliott) were in the middle of the race. This one was different. In the same category as retaliation, so I think not being a Playoff eligible win – we go through the points and money stuff – that somewhat nets out the same. Kinda,” he said. [7:50]
