Video of NASCAR drivers reacting to Bubba Wallace's win is saying everything on Sunday night.
Wallace, driving the No. 23 Toyota for 23XI Racing, took home the checkered flag at the Brickyard 400 on Sunday afternoon. Wallace won the Cup Series race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. It was his first win in a long time.
The veteran NASCAR Cup Series driver last won in September of 2022. He won at the Kansas Speedway, then driving the No. 45 for 23XI Racing. Wallace had a streak of roughly 100 straight races without a win, however, he stopped that on Sunday evening in a major way.
