The results for the New Hampshire race indicate a promising start for 23XI Racing and its sponsors. Tyler Reddick demonstrated impressive skill by securing a solid 6th position on the starting grid. Meanwhile, Bubba Wallace, also representing 23XI Racing, achieved a commendable top-10 qualification, securing the 8th position. All hail the DraftKings!

DraftKings, the gaming company, made an impactful entrance into NASCAR sponsorship by supporting not one but two cars in the Crayon 301 Cup Series race. Reddick was left hilariously stunned in a short quiz with DraftKings as Wallace kept chuckling in the background.

Quiz showdown: Tyler Reddick’s priceless face and Bubba Wallace’s winning grin

Sponsorship plays a vital role in NASCAR, as it injects substantial funds into the sport, directly influencing the teams’ performance. After Crayon 301, the race in a game of “Who Knows New Hampshire Better,” Reddick found himself in an amusing situation. While Wallace got two out of three questions right, Tyler wasn’t so lucky. When asked about NH State bug in the last question, Reddick hilariously prompted, “Water Bug.”

And ding ding ding! Bubba won the quiz fair and square. Reddick’s once-animated face now appeared locked in a state of sheer disbelief, trying to catch up with the reality of the situation as Wallace burst into laughter at his teammate’s red face. Thanks to Reddick, we now know “Waterbug” is not the correct answer for NH’s state bug.   

Upon hearing Ladybug be the correct answer, Reddick proudly claimed, “Ladybug? I was halfway there!”

Michael Jordan and Denny Hamlin’s team had a successful outing at the 2023 New Hampshire Motor Speedway Cup race, exceeding their expectations for the event. The latter spoke at length about the team’s success.

Denny Hamlin was satisfied with the team’s performance, emphasizing the importance of such solid races in the current playoff picture, with only six races remaining in the regular Cup season. Highlighting that they avoided any detrimental incidents throughout the event, these types of races, according to Hamlin, remained crucial for accumulating stage points and finishing within the range of seventh to tenth place.

While the team aspired to secure a victory at NHMS, Hamlin admitted that they had zero chance, attributing this to the exceptional speed and dominance of their teammate, Martin Truex Jr, driving the #19 car.

Hamlin emphasized the importance of managing the race and maintaining realistic expectations. By securing a top 10 position, the team left the track feeling much better and more confident ahead of the upcoming race weekend in Pocono. With DraftKings’ entry into NASCAR as a prominent sponsor, their support is expected to propel 23XI Racing to new heights.
