COTA was a great race for some drivers, while not the best for others. While Ross Chastain clenched Trackhouse Racing’s first-ever cup series win. On the other hand, Bubba Wallace was on the other side of the spectrum with race performance. Although, the #23 Camry was fast on the street track. A mid-race incident caused the 23XI driver to lose it all. Unfortunately, a tire got loose and came off of the car and started rolling on the track, causing a yellow flag.

Bubba Wallace‘s Crew Chief, Bootie Barker, will be suspended for the next four races, along with the Jackman, Caleb Dirks, and rear tire changer, Adam Riley.

However, 23XI decided to not appeal the suspension. In fact, a replacement has already been called in.

Most likely, former Crew Chief of Denny Hamlin and Tony Stewart, Dave Rogers, will fill in Bootie Barker’s shoes.

NASCAR Fans React to Bubba Wallace’s New Crew Chief

Although Dave Rogers is only temporary, it seems the fans are already thrilled about it. Especially considering Rogers’ experience as a Crew Chief.

In fact, he was the Crew Chief for Joe Gibbs for a long time, working with Denny Hamlin, Kyle Busch, and also Tony Stewart. And, the response from fans further proves the favorable response.

Fascinatingly, many fans are opposed to having Mike Wheeler as the Crew Chief again.
