Bubba Wallace is certainly not having the greatest of seasons in NASCAR, as he was critical of himself for the most part. After his early exit from the Circuit of The Americas, he demanded his boss fire him. However, his bosses, Denny Hamlin and NBA legend Michael Jordan are showing plenty of faith in him.
In the Kansas Speedway, Denny Hamlin clinched a terrific victory for the team after a close battle with Kyle Larson. On the other hand, Wallace finished the race in 4th place, which was a huge result for him, considering his previous results.

When Wallace had a DNF in the Circuit of The Americas, he was really disappointed with his performance. After the race, he said, “Two weeks in a row of making rookie mistakes six years into Cup? Need to be replaced.”
In a recent interview, Wallace’s boss, Denny Hamlin said, “He’s better than I thought he was, I mean, that’s just the simple answer… I knew he was good, I didn’t know he had the potential to be great. I think that he’s continued to chip away at getting better and better every week.”
