Some NASCAR fans are accusing Wallace of acting poorly during and after the Cup Series race in Chicago.
"I always forget about that, but Bubba does something dumb enough every single year to remind me, and it's always hilarious to watch," one writer shared.
"What a (jerk) move! Maybe he just legit hates Alex Bowman? Weird dude in the garage to hate, but to each his own, I reckon."
NASCAR fans, meanwhile, are taking to X to weigh in on the behavior from Wallace.
"Seems like it ended well. Sad that fans can’t respect them enough to give them space to chat," one fan wrote.
"Why does bowman apologize every time even if he is literally not in the wrong. Something happened in his childhood to make him sorry for shit he shouldn’t be sorry for," one fan added.
"Bubba isn't doing anything. Learn to drive," one fan added.
"Bubba wasn’t defending he was trying to crash the 48 from in front he’s a no talent cry baby," one fan added.
"I love how we cannot hear a single word of what the driver say to each other because everybody wants to run their yapper. Everybody has their own opinion. Here's an idea. Everybody let's hear what they have to say. Go up there with a silence," one fan added.
