With Kurt Busch out of commission, Ty Gibbs took the reign for the #45 car. And he got to drive alongside Bubba Wallace, who was in the #23 car. Apparently, Bubba was quite a bad influence on him. And the things he taught Gibbs would probably affect his reputation even further.
In a recent episode of Door, Bumper, Clear! Bubba’s spotter, Freddie Kraft, talked about the one thing he shouldn’t be learning. He said, “I think Bubba told him how to use that maneuver where you just go three-wide and see what happens. Cause that’s what it looked like.”
But of course, Gibbs had a great run till the playoffs in the #45 car. And he will be going back to compete in the Xfinity playoffs. However, when it comes to the Cup Series, Wallace’s #23 car couldn’t make it to the playoffs. Yet, he’s racing for the championship.
