Following the incident between Bubba Wallace and Kyle Larson at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, literally, everyone has been talking about Wallace’s actions on track and then later his confrontation with the Hendrick Motorsport driver. Recently, NASCAR driver, Parker Kligerman decided to dissect what happened between the two last weekend by studying the data taken from Wallace’s car.

Parker Kligerman stated, “As he hits the wall he has a bunch of steering movement. From there proceeds to go full throttle, and then just under a second after that has a severe steering movement to the left towards the car of Kyle Larson. Now he did say he had steering issues, so that could be a part of it.”

He continued, “But going full throttle makes me think this is very similar to the incident that we said between Noah Gragson and Sage Karam at Road America in the Xfinity Series, where Noah got a penalty but with one big difference. When Bubba Wallace and Kyle Larson connected on the front stretch, they were going almost  170 miles per hour. That’s a big no-no. This could equal a large penalty for Bubba Wallace.”
