Bubba Wallace
Bubba Wallace is a prominent NASCAR driver known for his advocacy for social justice and inclusion within the sport. He drives for 23XI Racing, a team co-owned by basketball legend Michael Jordan. Wallace gained significant media attention in 2020 for his stance against racism, particularly his call for a ban on Confederate flags at NASCAR events, which led to a public feud with former President Donald Trump. As of 2024, Wallace has adopted a more reserved approach to political discussions, focusing on his racing career and family life, while expressing indifference towards Trump's potential attendance at the Daytona 500.
