- Bubba Wallace calls his season a roller coaster — one great week often followed by a letdown, summing it up as “that’s my whole life.”
- He suffered a costly, controversial penalty at Atlanta for going below the double line on the final lap — the rule’s interpretation is subjective and opinions are split.
- Despite no wins this year, Wallace has strong speed (multiple top-5s/top-10s, laps led), is expected to make the Chase and could easily win at North Wilkesboro.
