He got everyone’s attention, including the first-ever Mexican NASCAR Cup Series winner, Daniel Suarez. The Latin driver laughed at Bubba’s post of him wiggling and dancing on the rig, with the waver filter.

Wallace struggled heavily with his pit crew ever since this season began. So, Joe Gibbs Racing’s solution to the issue was to swap the pit crew with Christopher Bell. And, sure, the swap helped the 23XI Racing driver finish 3rd, but Christopher Bell, who got part of Bubba’s pit crew, won the race.

The driver of the #23 had to witness part of his crew, that joined Bell’s crew, celebrate their first win of the season. However, that win was with a completely different driver of a different team.
