Bubba Wallace missed Sunday’s NASCAR race, and that’s evidently not his only sanction after losing his cool in Las Vegas last weekend.
Denny Hamlin — who, along with Michael Jordan, co-owns the 23XI racing team that Wallace drives for — said Oct. 22 that the team has dealt with matters in a way that goes “above and beyond” the penalties handed down by NASCAR.
Hamlin didn’t say what that means, choosing to keep those matters in-house.
One racing analyst that "means" Wallace will have to forfeit a big chunk of money out of his 23XI purse, possibly more than $1 million in fines.
“He understands where I stand, where the team stands, the values that we want to present on the racetrack, and he just didn’t represent it that well last week,” Hamlin said. “But, you know, in the grand scheme of things, we’re very happy with his progress. And he knows he’s still got some stuff to work on when he gets out of the race car.”
NASCAR drvier Bubba Wallace attacks Kyle Larson in Las Vegas
That may not be enough to satisfy sport critcs - and fans, however.
As we have reported, former NASCAR Cup Series driver and current analyst for NBC Sports Kyle Petty made it clear he disagrees with NASCAR’s punishment and believes Wallace should have been suspended for the rest of the season.
And there is a spreading demand among NASCAR fans for principal sponsor McDonald's to drop Wallace completely...which would cost him and the team a huge sum.

” You have no,idea what I watch or what I follow- so Stick to the issue. “
I am. Larson stated honestly. ... I got loose and slid up. You are to one getting all hyper.
What is your point?
lol hyper- yeah ok- whatever0- his sliding up had nothing to do with bubba’s over-reaction other than bubba freaked out because he got close- there was still plenty of room for wallace to keep his car from hitting the wall or kyle’s car- bubba blew it-
[[I am.]]
No you are not- one thing i’ve noticed about your posts is that you love to make your posts personal attacks on those you are arguing issues with- You tried some lame insult- not knowing anything about me- then you start in with accusations of getting ‘hyper’- Stick to the issues- this isn’t about you or me- it’s about whether kyle was responsible for what happened or not- that’s it-
