The NASCAR community is showing once again that they have their support squarely behind Bubba Wallace.
A fellow NASCAR driver is responding back to President Donald Trump calling out Bubba Wallace on Twitter on Monday morning.
President Trump is demanding an apology from Wallace for what he says is a “hoax” noose incident. Wallace’s team found a noose in his garage stall at Talladega last month that prompted an FBI investigation that later determined that it was there since 2019.
“From the evidence that we have, that I have, it’s a straight-up noose,” Wallace said on CNN last month. “The FBI has stated it was a noose over and over again. NASCAR leadership has stated it was a noose. I can confirm that I actually got evidence of what was hanging in my garage over my car around my pit crew guys, to confirm that it was a noose.”
President Trump called out Wallace on Twitter.
“Has Bubba Wallace apologized to all of those great NASCAR drivers & officials who came to his aid, stood by his side, & were willing to sacrifice everything for him, only to find out that the whole thing was just another HOAX? That & Flag decision has caused lowest ratings EVER!” he wrote on Twitter.
Tyler Reddick, who finished eighth in Sunday’s race, responded to President Trump’s apology demand on Twitter.

“We don’t need an apology. We did what was right and we will do just fine without your support,” Reddick tweeted at the president.
