Informing Bowman that it was time for him to answer Wallace’s question, the interviewer quoted; “You’re the world rule maker for the day or basically the president. What are the first three things you change?” The interviewer further clarified that the question is not just for NASCAR, but for the entire world.

After hearing the question, Bowman immediately said; “Where did he come up with that? Holy cow.”

After thinking about it, Bowman said; “Well, all homeless pets would have to have homes right off the rip. We do a lot for animal shelters and animal welfare and did a bunch of stuff this week. So that’d be neat.”

Moving on to his Rule No. 2, Bowman said; “Dogs can fly on any airplane. That is literally the only downside of driving for Hendrick Motorsports. I can’t fly my dogs with me. (Laughs) So we would change that.”

Continuing his answer to the question by Bubba Wallace, Bowman said; “And Rule No. 3, I would always have the fastest race car, period. So there’s a lot of selfishness there. But those would be my three rules.”
